    Good luck with your decision. I know that a first system is always a fun ride and a lot of thought is put into it. I really think that any of the subs that you have listed you are going to be really pleased with. I know you are leaning towards a single 15, but if i were you i would re-visit the dual 12" option and run the SAX-1200d. Look into the SA-12 or the SKAR VVX 12. You can get a great deal on 2 of those subs, and the current SKAR audio deal is two subs with a free dual 12 box.

    Just my .02 =- let us know what you decide to go with :drink40:

    Man i think i like the blue halo with the clear lens - but i think what would look really nice with your style would be a red halo with a clear lense - that would match the helmet nicely - do they make one with a red halo???? or maybe even a clear halo with a red lense - i am just not sure i like the blue with the red??

    love the bike bro - sweet

    a good place to start thinking about a ported box design in my opinion would be to look at the recommended enclosure from kicker on your particular subs. I think that the link above is for your subs. if you were doing two subs versus one you would double the measurements.

    just my .02 unless someone on the forum is willing to design a box for you :ughdunno:

    Yes FunBogie, Ive looked at the recommended enclosure. I know what design Im looking for. My forum states that I have limited room due to replacing my shitty BOSE factory 6x9's they hang lower than expected. Also to note, my torsion bar is broke off weld from my previous box being too tall. I have to limit the height in order not to interfere with those. Would it work the same lowering the box and going deeper?

    Yes it would work. When you decrease the height dimension, you will increase the depth or width dimension to maintain the same internal volume. Does that make sense? This might make it easier because it has already calculated the port area for you and the exact recommended interior volume for your particular subwoofer. Just play with the recommended design dimensions until it works for you and has the same internal volume and port area.

    I wouldn't use their box recommendations. The "SQ" box is tuned to 40hz and the "SPL" box is tuned to 44hz. :(

    I will have to admit that i did not pay attention to what the boxes were tuned to. I completely agree with Bromo above. Sorry to lead you down the wrong path.

    I hope that this is not considered "thread jacking", but i had a quick question regarding this topic. I am running a ported box in the trunk of a honda civic currently. What kind of difference does this configuaration make when sealing off the trunk with the woofer and port firing into the cabin? Just curious as i have never tried this method.

    Thank you and i hope that was close enough to topic :peepwall:
