I am going to buy 2 Power Acoustik MOFO-12 1200WRMS subs. Here are the specs:

3" BASV/Kapton hybrid 18A

SPL: 90db

Fs: 36.7 Hz

VAS: .73 cu.ft.

Qms: 5.34

Qes: .36

Qts: .3363

xmax: .7"

I'm looking at a Sonic sub box 2BA12 3.0 cu.ft. 2-4"ports in each enclosure ( I assume 1.5cu.ft per enclosure)

Does this sound like a good box for these subs? How do I use these specs to tune the amp ( Hifonics 950W@1ohm, sub dual 1ohm coils will be wired in series then paralleled)?

Would a sealed box be better? If so, how many cu.ft.?

not that great of a sub, peaky so it can get loud, but the quality isnt there.as far as the power you are using considering they are rated at 1200wrms and you are giving them 450 id go with a larger box to compensate for lack of power something like 4.5cu with 60sqin of port tuned to around 34hz. would get loud but i wouldnt exspect it to sound great.

I'm building an entry-level system so I probably won't know the difference in sound quality. I Know they're not the best subs but I've heard some good things about them for the money. Don't really want a bigger box-maybe I'll get 2 amps that put out around 650 each (or maybe more if I get mouse-click happy on ebay)

Thanks

How much are those?

$150.

they do get loud for the price but they sound bad... i had a pw3 and it got really loud for 90 bucks

Those subs are over-rated and crap IMO, that 90dB sensitivity is BS, probably not rated 1w@1m thats why...

There is WAY better for the money.

Give me some suggestions for WAY better for the money.
