    Questions, building a new box

    I would build one box with a board as a divider down the middle and then do two slotted ports off of each side of the divider.

      well the box i made for my 12 mtx is sealed ive never really liked ported or bandpass so ive stuck with sealed enclosures never been a problem either but if you want ported id say go with ruger
      edit:if you want to save room and money possibly you can do a free air sub enclosure but you have to make sure its capable of free air

      I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

            If you want to optimize the bass of each sub you need to make each one enclosed by it self but in one whole box. Make lik an L shape around the inside of the box that makes the airflow travel around the outside of the L and through the port. Your shit will hit harder than a motha F*cka

              man go to home depot and buy a 3/4 MDF, get all you measures of space available
              W x H x D, then after you got all those numbers, do a bottom cross port.

                  Im not a car audio guru, but a good sub box depends on alot of different variables. For instance, what the manufacture recommends for box displacement, how much power you have for them vs what they can take, what your looking for-spl (loud) or sq (liner response) or a combination of both, Ported or sealed- and if ported, how do you want it tuned..? Once you determine how you want them to preform you can narrow down many of the options and know what route to go. Hope this help man.

                      Never attach amp to box. If for some reason you need to pull the box to get to the spare or something you will be unhooking the amp just to do it. Personally I always attach amp to back seat. Also attaching box to amp can ruin the integrity of the box. If you were to try to sell the box and it has either a few small holes in it or screws sticking out of it where the amp was someone else might not want it. jmo

                        I would agree with this type of box...

                        This type of box is also known as a SUBZERO Enclosure and it's what I would recommend...this will take them to the next level...believe me I've used them
