Hey guys, i'm new here but I know a lil about car audio. I have a single dual 2 ohm old school R-type 12" and need a new box for it. I know alpine recommends between 1.25-1.75 cubic ft. Any suggestions as to what is the best for spl? I don't care if its bigger or smaller. I will prolly tune it to about 30 hz...

Have Mark Potts design and build your box. He'll design it to your specific needs. He's done extensive testing with the Type R and knows how to make great sounding SPL enclosure. $199 shipped to your door..can't beat it.

It wouldn't have near the ouput his enclosure does. Manufacturer's specs suck for the most part. Only certain companies put out good specs for ideal enclosures. If you want a good idea of what works well..go with 2.5 cu ft tuned to 35 hz.
