If I had the time I would, but I work to much. which sucks cause most premade boxes are wack, I did see one online but kinda suspect!

sealed if you want crazy SQ out of those drivers, port them if you want to gain more SPL.

that being said, how much space do you have to work with? my friend builds some damn good boxes that he sells to people. he built my previous one and the one i'm currently using for the RL-p 15.

With ported boxes, they pretty much have to be made exactly for your sub or they will sound crappy. Sealed boxes are pretty hard to go wrong with, with respect to the different dimensions of them compared to your subs specs. Honestly I just bought the cheapest box i could find, a $10 at the local kragen, because of my tight budget at the time and my sub sounds great.

yeah about that....

Personally i would get on the bandwagon with ascendant. Get ahold of moe lester or even squeak, he did this one for me, im happy to say that its obnoxious as all hell lol. MOE is a great builder as are many people on that site, if you send him your max dimensions he can work a setup within the parameters you give.

Might try contacting AE (Audio Enhancers). They do a very good job, I've owned 3 of their boxes and loved every one of them. They're also the supplier for Memphis Car Audio.
