Hey guys, I have a set of kicker 12" x12c-8 subs. I was just wondering, what kind of box. I want it to be loud, and I want to feel the thump. I'm thinking I might just put 1 in, since I don't need 2. what kind of box is reccommended. Cup, your input is appreciated as always.
they need about 8 cuft, 5.5" mt depth, and 106.09 cuin. I'm thinking a nice sealed box.

 

I'd do what ever is recommended by Kicker. They usually will tell you what works best for the speaker.

 

i got one 12'' kicker in my car 600watts with a sealed box and the see through plastic, it has some tight bass and booms good. well at least i think its awsome. Im sure there is a real speaker pro out there that will tell you whats up. Check my profile for pics if ya want.

thanks. am i officially the audio *****?

depends on how many watts, how clean you want it, etc.

personally, i'd go for 1 sub and sealed. i like bass, but i like treble more. tight, rich, deep bass is there to compliment the rest of the music.

IMO, 500+ watts going to subwoofers requires some major tweeter and midrange/midbass upgrades up front to keep up. gotta have the treble to back up your bass, otherwise you're just a rattling box
