Bronze Member Username: PaogrAthensGreece Post Number: 32 Registered: Dec-05 | My friend's system: 1 CVR 12'' , 380wrms amp , on a 1.25cf sealed box. (He has no room in his trunk). My system: 1 CVR 12'' , 240wrms amp , on a 2.0cf ported box tuned to 32-33hz (I will build the box the next week). Which will be louder? (in theory) |

I do, however, think your distortion would be louder than his ...and my theory is under the assumption that you intend to spl. |
