if you care about sound quality, and the quality of the box itself, then yes.

u think I should get 1 15" ported or 2 15" sealed, I have heard that this sub (RF Power HX2 1000 Watt rms) was made to go ported, what would be better though, 2 sealed or 1 ported, im gone for the night.

EDIT: Since its an SPL sub (whatever that means loudness I guess)

lol you can do anything man. RF doesnt release the info for 2 subs in one chamber ported, just one sub. e-mail RF and ask what would be a good size for the 2 15s in a single chamber ported box.

isnt the point of getting such a loud system to "explode your trunk" anyways?

yo, ima get a sealed box, u think I should take these dimmensions to the shops.

I want it to hit as low as possible, and only low notes, just deep bass, anyways, should I go with these stats (from weobite) for the enclosure or what do you recommend?

Trunk space is no matter, not like I even use my trunk anyways. (If its like a bigger sealed box hits lower type of thing) come on yitzac ur probably on right now, what should I do.

EDIT: or just forget I typed anything and tell me what you think I should do with the box.
And also I dont know what "tuning box to 32 hz" or things like that mean but what should the box be tuned to? and like how do u know?

i think when it says its tuned to a certain frequency, that means that the information for the box given will achieve that frequency. dont worry about that so much, but if you only want low notes, sealed is definitely the wrong way to go. sealed is more for quick, punchy, responsive bass. ported is for the deep lows and loud SPL

btw, sold my system haha
