Hey james/jonathan or anyone else thats interested. I was gonna sell my 2 12w6v2's in the JL prowedge box but i may test one in a ported box before i decide to sell both. What whould be the best cubic ft and tune for a ported box for 1 12w6v2? i know james has tried it in both. let me know guys.

Also whould it be ok if i used my Zapco 500m that puts out 700 watts x 1 @ 2ohm ??? i know this sub takes 400rms.. Let me know

I would do 1.75 tuned to 30 htz if I were you. I did that same enclosure tuned to 27 and it sounded very nice.
