I think he is asking for a ported box 1cubed tuned to 32 hz

MOAR!!!

Looking good man!

Looks pretty good

Just a little overkill

Funny I was just wondering about that. At 5.5in I cant go wrong.

man those are nice drivers....

What level certified are you? level 3

DOD Civilian for the ARMY here in Lawton, Ok. I do Production Control which is like issuing out work orders to the mechanics and updating everything on our database. I'am also in the ARMY reserves as the head Combative(hand 2 hand) instructor for my brigade. Sometimes when they need me I play as opposition forces OPFOR to help train units going to Iraq. Which means get to dress up like a insurgent and run around Ft Sill with a AK-47 playing the bad guy. Once a week I teach private lessons in Jiu-Jitsu to kids and well thats about it.

what he said

Haha what if I was putting one in an acura type r? no really what do you think............you know could the spl as sound clean/ get decent low end.......that sort of stuff its all in the box man. I have my box tuned around 38 and i think it get very low while still sounding great for a SPL driver

i think they sound great for daily and please never ever ever ever use type r and mach 5 in the same sentence ever again

so are you saying that Stratus01 isnt a real SPL competitor?

these should go on sale again... *hint* *hint*

nice

Well its Mach 5- 2, DD- 0 because in my review i posted on here i said that the Mach 5 was more musical and better sounding alaround then the 9512f I had. Now that the sub is broke in it sounds very good for a SPL sub.

sexy stuff..

Good read and i would expect nothing less from a great company

wow thats a nice set-up

sick man

Did you read my post right? I said that a BTL vs SPL12 is install dependent meaning that both have the capabilities to get loud but it depends on the install. I would go for the Mach 5 because they are cheaper and well i like the construction a little more. As for pushing a sub to the limits? Look on ca.com and a member who is also a member on here but 10000 watts on one and it took it just fine. So pushing it to the limits means over 10k, if you got the will to do that then do it. If you want to put 4000 watts on yours thats cool but you will not notice a difference between 2 1500s and then going to 4kw. 3kw is in no way under powering the sub. These threads that about sub a vs sub b are kinda dumb because iam going to recommend Mach 5 because thats what i run but iam not going to sit here and tell you that its louder then a BTL. You can have a SPL12 but put it in a dumb box and say "oh this sub isnt loud at all" or "my friends BTL is soo much louder" but whatever............. Get the Mach 5.

I ran mine daily on 43hz for a while and it was just fine. I think as far as comparing it to a BTL for SPL i would say its install dependent. But from my own experience i feel that the SPL12 has better SQ then the BTL. As for under powering? hell no! 2 1500s is just fine. You dont need 10kw just to power the sub it sounds fine off of 2k+.

nice job on the enclosure
