New Enclosure For L5s need opinion


AMMAY

Recommended Posts

I screwed up!  When I bought my 2 12" L5s I didnt fully read the manual, the box dimensions they supplied were for a compact (efficient) enclosure, and I built that sucka and have no low end.  Time to rebuild!

Heres the deal...I can build up to 36x15x15, 3.6somethingft3.  This is about 1.75 a piece.  Would it be worth making a ported box this small, or should I stick with sealed?  The woofers get 920 total watts, and I listen to rock and rap.  Thanks!

my L5 build for 2 12's in my accord was 6.5 cubes and i have to build it in the trunk to fit it, 1.75 each is a little on the small side but you should be ok with that as i think the manual stats 1.75 is the compact ported enclosure amount 2.5 each for street bass and 3,25 ish for SPL.  i may be a tiny tiny bit off but i think i'm pretty close on those numbers.

according to the manual your right at the perfect almost RMS for 2 of them

I dont have the skills to build in the trunk.  Youre right about the specs, I just dont know which would sound better given the limited trunk space.

Im going to build both and just see for myself.

Can you tune a ported box that is that small to 34hz?
