Really nice seal off you did DubNDodge. The only little difference is port area which I believe the 312s will benefit from some more of it as compared with the SDCs you previously used.

Im still undecided in what I should do. I miss my nice loud and low mayhem. I need more opinions preferably based experience.

As much as I enjoy my hds300s, you're going from a ham to a qubed woofer? qubed doesn't sound as nice as a real quality woofer. buddy has some lvl 4 DCs and sound difference is noticeable. Sure they'll get loud as you can see picture above. They meet my needs of having a little bump and what not so they make me happy.

True I was thinking of other subs.. but I dont need them a couple of these should do it. I plan on doing a clean build, pretty damn close to yours as far as sub placement and looks go. what would u recommend as far as box tuning, I like low, but do the subs?

With a port plug in my box which drops the tuning to 28ish, they can handle 25hz at the lowest. 24hz is just mechanical noise and wind. tuned at 35 iirc they could go to 29hz.

Thanks, seems you have had quite a bit of problems with soundqubed.. XD Almost makes me want to go another route despite saving a few bucks.

Everything has been solved now, each company has their cons. Especially when you are trying to supply a product as cheaply to a customer while still making profit. They cut the corners on the quality of the voice coil, in regards to the glue holding the windings together.

Yeah.. I think im just going to end up sticking with the hds300 12's. Price is right at the moment and mostly good reviews. But like ur car thats exactly what I wanted to do, make it clean and not look like shit.. Might even keep the spare tire in there tho.. depends if id even be able to access it or not with the box in.

Back to topic.. anyone else got any box designs? around 4.5cf/35hz, preferrably mid port, havent messed around with aero's yet.
