Here is my new setup that I put in last night:

IPB Image

JL Audio e1400d amplifier, along with 2 12" Alpine Type E's in a ported box. Sounds freaking amazing to say the least. I'm probably going to change the box to two single 12" boxes, because this damn box now must weight 100 lbs at least. Tell me what you guys think.

100 lbs isnt really that heavy for a fiber board box thats built to support those speakers.....

fiberglass and kevlar would b lighter but more ecpensive...

sick setup tho!

how many db's is it pushin?

Now actually lifting the box, it's easily passed 100lbs. Like maybe 115 or so. It sinks the car down, to give you an idea.

With and without the cap, I haven't tried it without, but I honestly don't want to. I have a feeling that my lights would flicker.

I think I'm going to get a standard sealed 12" box, due to the weight. I'd like to get it to fix in between the two back panels, if possible.

i have measured up for a similar box...

with 90cm top, 80cm bottom, 32cm height and 35cm bottom depth and 25cm top depth it should fit perfectly between the sus towers and give around 2 cuft... dividable into 2 X 1cuft which is about right for a 12" sub, no?

Due to size, I'm selling this in order to get 2 10's. Here is the FS thread for anyone that is interested:
