Lowroll Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Why sealed? the rms on that sub is 500 watts right? get something like a 1200 watt rms amp.

Lowroll Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 well i was watching video's from the guy at rockford and thats what they recommended..is that not true? I ported my P2 10's when I had them. and you have a bigger sub, that can handle more power. Sealed is okay if you want kinda loud but accurate bass. Ported is for some serious bass that will get your panels flexin.

Lowroll Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Nope, According to their website a P3D412 (i assumed) takes 1.50 cubes min, 1.79 is recommended & 2.10 is max.

I have the p3 12's in sealed 1.09 cube boxes right now they hit decent but i'm dissapointed with the way they are in the sealed boxes so i'm waiting on a design for a ported enclosure myself. and will be purchasing either the 1000bd amp or the 1500bd amp.
