they have 2 recommended sizes, medium = 1.65, small = 1.2.
is a 1.2 cube ported box the same size as a 1.2 cube sealed? or is it bigger because the ports aren't calculated into the size?
one of the things is that i still want a useable trunk, its not that large to begin with, but even now, i find myself using the cargo net, the space beside the box, and then the back seat.

Rep Power: 0 jeez.. youre running the sub in 1.5 cubes sealed and they reccomend 1.2 cubes ported?
now i know why you blew it in that box... the sub handles 1200 at .55 cubic feet or so... the bigger the box, the lower the power handling of the sub...
i would personally go with the 1.6 cubic foot box tuned to 33 hz...

Rep Power: 293 hot damn, i never even thought that the box size would have something to do with my sub blowing.
here is a pdf of the specs on the TDX, i really dont understand it much, but from i get, it says that if i go ported with the 1.65 cube box, it should be tuned at 33hz, and i should run 900watts to the sub. but if i run 1.2 cube, still use 33hz port, but 1200 watts on the sub.

i know you can make some sense of it.
