New member Username: SpcbaileybPost Number: 1 Registered: May-11 | i have 2 KENWOOD W3012 12 Performance Series Subwoofers in a crappy tiny sealed box running on a kicker 750.1 zx amp they are 1200 watt peak, 400 rms, in parallel so at 2 ohms.My car is a 93 Jeep cherokee sport. I want to know, 1. Should my seats be up or down in the back or does it make a difference, what is the ideal placement of the box and which direction should it face? I want to buy plexi glass and have a professional create a box for me. Should it be sealed or Ported or a bandstand? *** that's my most important question there. I want it to hit HARD but not sound bad either. i'm kinda tone def so it dont hae to sound perect XD but good enough that I cant tell! |

But dustin does great work so im sure youll be more than satisfied with whatever he does for you |

Plexi-glass is expensive and isn't going to do much on that little power & cone area, you're asking if you should get a sealed box and then ask about plexi glass - get real. Bandstand, lol... that's hilarious. |
