Thumbs up New System......

Hey everyone, im fixing to redo my system. Currently it is just a JL Audio 12w3v2 w/ an Alpine M300. I want to get another 12w3v2 so ill have to build a new box. The only question that lingers in my mind is whether I should make the box slotted or enclosed. The box I have right now is a slotted box and I know how loud the slotted is compared to the closed box. I don't want to build another slotted box for two subs though since it would be alot more difficult than a closed, so if I just make another closed box for the two subs, will it still hit pretty hard? I am also planning on upgrading my amplifier to a HiFonics BX1000D 750W RMSx1 @ 1Ohm with both subs wired at 1Ohm. Thanks.

I have four w3v2's, and two of them will slam in 1.2 cubes sealed each. Sounds VERY nice.

If I make two sealed in a single box, how big should the box be? The JL Site doesn't give you the box specs for more than one sub.

Well thats what I was assuming, but these things can get pretty complicated. Usually when I assume something it is usually wrong.
