well it really depends on wut u want out of the sub, i wanted the lowest bass i could get while still having an "ok" range of bass. my 12 slammed in that box. i dont think u can fit a new XXX 12 in it cuz of the mounting depth of the new 12. my port end comes real close to where the subs magnet reaches. and with the size of the new XXX magnet and the depth, i think it might touch.

when u get ur new XXX 12 just tune your box to a couple of hz above the Fs of the sub. or right at it if u want really low bass. as for the cuft for the new XXX, im guessin 3.5-4.5 cuft. but i dont know for sure, marshall might have some more input on that.

ok i sent it off already but i didnt get it back yet lol i sent it yesterday which was monday. and they are deff rebuilding it as an 18 from a 12. yeah lucas, they r just gonna keep the magnet and motor, and put a new basket and cone all the soft parts. i would get 2 if i had another 05 XXX 12 to send to them. i saw one on ebay the other day, but i dont think i want to buy another sub then get it rebuilt. i mean if i had one layin around, yeah id get it done too.

yeah, so if anyone has an 05 model XXX that just isnt big enuff for em, call RE, they give u an RMA number and u send in the sub, when they get it, they will call u and ask for ur payment, they build it and ship it back to u. sweet deal for $200 even.
