    The box I am posting up is for an sa-8 v2 d4. This is why I was trying to change the title because I am no longer using the E-12 D2. So it is not a random sub in a box..

    OK well I will do some research I guess. Do you think its worth going off what i have? using this 8 and cabinet if it sounds good. If not I will just use at a sub with my yamaha's

    I wouldn't think about using car audio crossovers, I am gonna look around on parts express, maybe some dayton audio mids or something, do you think it would be better if i let two mids share the same cabinet space? plus the tweet? i am going to order the second sa-8 soon. Also should I re-title this thread since the old one no longer applies? Thanks Also I am currently running a JBL Reciever with some yamaha towers, once I finish these I will no longer use them oviously, but I plan I buying a Crown amp again I can look into the hardware crossovers meant for Crowns.

    If you mean PWX's then TERRIBLE idea. No application I've EVER seen has been good for those. What would be better, I know i am going to have to get into crossovers and such, dont have much experience working with crossovers.

    Well I have this crazy idea that I am thinking of, it may be dumb but Towers? Crescendo's? I am no longer going for SQ, well some SQ, just want some future shop Towers maybe, nothing crazy. Opinions?

    And if i do go sealed I would like to double baffle the sub face so it will look clean flush mounted, and help out with the overall integrity of the box/flex

    E-12 d2 as home theater sub ideas

    The recommendation for the e 12 sealed is 1.0 ft^3 on Sundowns site so you are thinking maybe 1.3 or larger? I do have torres just not the best at using it yet. For power I am looking at installing a plate amp so I can have more power and better crossovers/EQ. Something from maybe parts express. my receiver is an older JBL I'm currently running it L ported and around 2.3ft^3 probably seeing 50 rms or so. I am going to need so compensate for the guts of the plate amp.

    Ok, Thanks for the help. I know I want to tune low, but I know unless you do it right you can get a lot of port noise going ported. Do you or anyone else have thoughts on making it sealed? I live in an apartment and i can spare the loudness going sealed.
