I have a kicker comp VR 12'' DVC which is 800watts max and 400 watts rms and my amp is a kenwood 800 watt max 460 when bridged at 4ohms. using a sealed 1 cubic foot box for the sub. Enough bass for me. Makes my 06 mustang raddle now I might have to dynomat it.

We just built a box for my bud's tahoe....get it...you won't be disappointed! this blows mine away...

we got 1 12" JLW7 with a 1000/1 JL amp pushing it....it is sick!

There is no one loudest or best of anything. Different drivers will react differently to different applications.

Choose something wisely, in your budget, and work around it to suit your needs. You can spend gobs of money for the "best" equipment, but poor planning and execution of install will make it sound like poop.

Gotta agree. with Kwik. I've seen great equipment haphazardly installed and souunded like junk. Also seen cheap stuff with proper placement and install sound too good for price spend.

98- is that a cap in a port??

 

[KWIK9550]

I think it's just a stand. It's carpeted and that's far too much vent area for that enclosure.

there is a 2 farad cap in there...but the box itself is sealed...that was just a good place to put the cap...
