Bandpass is generally tuned to a certain frequency and anything other than that will sound horble. and sloppy.Spl its alrite. SQ sucks

see what your subs are designed for

Efficiency Bandwidth Product (EBP)
EBP = Fs / Qes
50 or less = best used in a sealed enclosure.
50 - 90 = flexible enclosure options.
90 or greater = best used in ported enclosure.
-OR-
Qts < 0.30 - ported
Qts = 0.30 - 0.50, use ported or sealed.
Qts > 0.50 sealed

that's going to tell you what to use.
by the way ' is feet, " is inches.
you have 12" speakers

glass are you sure that info on if your subs should be ported or sealed is true? because i just checked it out for my 9500 and i got EBP=49 and Qts=0.57 and i doubt that this sub is meant to be sealed
