Building a box for a pair of 12" BTL UFO motors and need to know what kind of space i need for them. I would assume the standard 1.5-2 per sub would be sufficient but i need to be 100% sure. Customer will be putting about 4k between the pair for now on proper electrical so i want to build it proper for him. Box will be sealed off firing into the passenger compartment, most likely port on the driver side. Any and all help is appreciated!!

2.7ft^3 each... I would go with at least 5ft^3 for pair tuned to 32/33hz..

sometimes Loud is NOT pretty

Sounds like its safe to go ahead and bend that ass over.

Stay at 2-2.25 per sub if you have a true 4000 watts per sub. 32-34 Hz with subsonic filter set correctly.

Current system:

1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s

Previous systems:

2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz.

1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.

for now it will be 4k for the pair, so 2k per sub. I dont know if he has plans of getting more power to them, i guess time will tell for that. I def. do want him to have the ability to run 3k to each sub with this box though.

How does this sound to ya'll? I know that the net is a bit on the small side since it doesn't take into consideration the sub displacement. To remedy this i will be putting a triple thick baffle on which will push the subs out a bit. If anyone can modify this to make it work, the only dimensions that really need to stay constant is the height at 14" and the width at 43". Depth can stretch a bit more. Trying to stay around the 32 to 35 hz range.

Displacement of those subs will bring tuning up a little bit, while decreasing the net volume obviously. You can remedy that by adding an inch or two in depth to bring the volume back up and tuning back down.

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
