Eclipse 8712.4:

External diameter 12.38"
Cutout 10.94"
Mounting Depth 5.875"
Displacement 0.16 cubic feet.

No data on recommendations but with modelling software looks good on 1.9 cubic feet at 33Hz up to the rated 300W RMS power.

Thank you im looking at saving weight in my car i have 3 12 inch crossfire db's. I was thinking this speaker in the right box will have some punch and i can cut the weight. Whats better ported or sealed and is there info how much power it can handle sorry so many questions i will be using a crossfire 390m mono amp to power it.

I would go for a single 12" as you say but way more powerful.

Ported is better at getting the deeper notes loud.

That Eclipse is 300W rms.

An alpine type r would work very well for you even with your current power.

The Alpine? Sure 1.5-2 cubic feet tuned at 32Hz. If you want a cut sheet list for a box let me know.

As before I couldn't find a manufacturer recommendation for that older sub.

Through modelling 1.9 cubic feet at 33Hz up to the rated 300W RMS power seem adequate daily alignment IMO.

So that size is good for ported and sealed what size port would you suggest. I know its next to impossible to find any actual specs so i thanks you for your help.

0.8-1.0 cubic feet would be more than enough. Low EBP drivers work in sealed/4th.
