These are my only options of enclosure design that would work with my trunk space.
(not a sealed trunk... open to cabin trunk)

Compare the advantages/disadvantages of each..
SPL, SQ, type of music most suited for, best overall, any other comparisons or thoughts you would like to share, etc...

-12" X.X.X Sealed 0.8cf (RE Specs)
-12" X.X.X Ported 2.1cf 28hz (RE Specs)
-15" X.X.X Sealed 2.0cf (RE Specs)

12" Ported or 15 sealed for sure not the 12" sealed. Hard to tell ya which one, they both hit.

The 12" ported will match the 15" sealed in SPL around the tuned frequency, but overall the 15" will be a little louder. 12" ported can still sound very clean if it is built and tuned right, RE gives specific box plans on their site and with those you'll get great results. 12" sealed will offer great SQ as well, but not as much SPL as the other two.
