Some guy offered to sell me an re sx 12 in a sealed box (box is free basically). But it has a small knick in the surround, is there anything you can do about that?? And won't it keep tearing/getting larger??? Here are some pics it'd be great if you guys would tell me what you think.

That's a pretty good deal. But by the looks of the surround of the sub, it seems the grill doesn't work very well, lol.

a sealed box with an sx is pointless, i would tell him to lower the price and keep the box

I was afraid that sealed would be bad, will it still be nice an loud ported though with only 1 12??? (if i push about 1000-1200 watts to it). That makes me kinda mad cause thats a sweet box with teh plexiglass back (i love the magnent on sx's/RE subs)

Thats what i guessed, my friend who has the best system only has 2 10w3's ported and pushing 500 watts to each but the gain is at like minimum on the amps. ^^^ thats kinda sad lol i guess thats what happens when you live in iowa :-).

Back on topic, so the sx will be that bad sealed??? I am getting the box for like 20 bux so i might as well get it and maybe try to sell it or something, or use the plexiglass when i build my own box!

I think i am gonna buy it as long as no one thinks the knicked surround will cause any serious problems.

Thx for being so patient with me everyone :-)

i have a little nick in my surround (from shipping) on my SX and its fine. But that thing pounds, i only have like 600 watts going to it and it is great. But for sure port the thing with a 2.5 or so cu ft box around 30 to 32 hz.Upload

Yah i've been planning on porting whatever if got, but i ran accrouss that sub/box combo and its hella cheap (i really am not paying for the box) as long as that knicks not gonna hurt anything i'll buy it, and probably have time to build a box before i come up with the ca$h for my HO alt and new Amp :-)

JUst remember, for $100 more you can get a brand spankn new SX15" shipped and build your own box. The 12 is 270 shipped. Wouldn't it just bug you that you bought a sub that has a tear in the surround, everytime you look at it the hole will be peeping at you, lol. They look sooo nice when they come from RE. JMHO..Polo.
