Ported Or Sealed?


Recommended Posts

I don't know which kind of box / size i should build. The subs are eclipse 87121.8 12" SVC 8-ohm. Right now i have them in a ported box and they cant hit the lows.

Kenwood KDC-248U Head Unit

1 Rockrod Fosgate HX2 punch DVC 12

1 Rockford Fosgate R500-1 amp

Stock Mids & Highs.

Budget Build, I spent about 330$ for the setup.

but its a crx, if you cant fart and do a 150 in a crx there is something wrong...

Build a custom box for it, if its in a prefab box most are tuned to like 45-60Hz, and that would be a reason you wouldnt be able to get the lows good.

All BS aside, If I see one more comment in here that is NOT about the pre-sale, I will start the vacations. And that includes the trolls feeding the trolls.

Yeah its prefab from car toys, small port like 2-3" x 16" maybe ( shared port ).

8 ohms? What amp are you running and I hope your amps not 1 ohm stable

Running a RF R500-1 its 325w rms @ 4 ohms

The amp is a mono block, this is how the subs are wired.

That amp is 2 ohm stable which gives you 500 watts at that load but your running them at 4 ohm which isn't the best way to get the most out of your amp unless that's what you wanted. I would go ported on the box with that power because ported is more efficient and sould hit lower then sealed. Hope that helps good luck

I thought ported took more power to run. I could be wrong.
