December 16, 200915 yr I wouldnt use the subs at all IMO, I already used them and they arent worth it. If you want to stay mainstream then get some Kicker CVX's at least or something else. But if you already do have them, they like smaller than normal boxes as you can tell in the manual when they show the box they recommend for it.

One time my 2-12"s made my trunk open, it didnt break the latch or anything but somehow the lows popped the latch on its own (something my CVX's never did).

December 17, 200915 yr I dont remember the enclosure size, but it was ported at 30hz (this was about 2 years ago but 30Hz has always been my tuning frequency).
December 17, 200915 yr I had 2 10"s of those. They were in a sealed box. They lasted two years. The sound was good, hit the lows pretty good and loud, just not real accurate it seemed. I liked them, but after getting a Fi sub, I will never go back to mainstream speakers.
