Ok well im new here but not new to stereos and home theater stuff. But i figured i would ask an outside opinion on this topic.

I have two diamond audio 12 inch m6 subs and the right home amp to power them. Now if i bought a box for these to put them in my room with my theater would it be louder then a velodyne minivee sub.

Thanks for the help,
Nate

Depends on your amp and how much power they can supply to your subs.

It should be. Just don't forget the right box can make it tons better. A transmission line is out of question as it would take up way too much room. A bass-reflex design would be a little easier if you just want volume (passive radiators or a port). You might want to use a bandpass design if you just want it to be LOUD. I would probably personally use the largest sealed box I can (for deeper, louder bass) based on the T/S Parameters of those subs.

That's all I can think of to say.

Louder perhaps, better probably not.

Well he did ask for loudness! All he has to do is build/buy a box to maximize efficiency (bandpass; 6th order?) and place it in a corner. BOOM BOOM BOOM

Don't you already have enough bass power? I guess you need more... Yeah, personally I'd get a good ported design in the largest box you can fit (according to T/S parameters) lol.
