alright guys, first of all special shout out to BRAD WARREN for recomending me sealed from day 1 and jake papa for bothering the hell out of me about it. lol. i had the audiopulse revo 15 in a 3.6cuft net tuned to 32hz. it slammed. but brad warren kept telling me seal the sub and i will like it better. i was very skeptical at first cause i didn't want to lose the output. i knew the sealed would sound better but i thought there would be big difference in output. well i was wrong. its almost as loud. i didn't change the gain. the output still great. i tried out a few songs that i like, *cough steely dan *cough, and it plays way better. i was wrong to think that this sub sounds better ported. when i first got this sub, i had it in a 1.8cuft net sealed and thats why i didn't like it. now that i have a good size sealed box, i am very happy with the sound. |

its 3 cuft and with the sub displacement, its around 2.8cuft. it was the box for my rl-s12. i had to make the cut out bigger. it barely fit but its cool. it was a b!tch cutting through 2 plys of mdf since the front baffle is double. lol. jesse i have to retract my statement about jake porting it. lol. don't get me wrong, ported sounds awesome too. i mean awesome. but now its like you need a few diapers cause you will keep sh!tting your pants. lol. |

Damnit, I need a box like that too! Shipping would suck big D though. Cheaper for me to build it but I don't have all that much time. |

you can do it rob. mike the revo hits down low great ported or sealed. with sealed though it plays very flat. i am still amazed at the output in a sealed box. |

well it is still louder ported but sealed it don't peak so yeah i would say so. i tried out some bass songs like da blow, young jeezy, get low, and stuff like that and it still hits hard. the thing i didn't like about the ported box was it was peaking on alot of trance songs i listen to. the bass would just over power at certain frequencies. but with the sealed its perfect. it blends so good that it feels like one big speaker. lol. |

If your XXX box is as good as it looks they shouldnt be too far behind the revo in sq. Chad i made up my mind at xmas im adding 2 more and doing 12cuft sealed with another mmats 3500.1. I might as well i dont have any room to put anything in the trunk anyways. I also have the electrical to do it PLUS hitting high 140s sealed would be absolutely insane. |
