Anonymous | The car is 1995 4dr Acura Legend (full size sedan). I'm getting a pair of ALPINE SWR-1242D 12" Type Rs that will get 500watts RMS each. I am considering what kind of box to get, a dual band pass http://store.yahoo.com/csexpo/bp12dubacars.html or a regualar [OO] box with two 12" openings for the subs. Which kind would you get and why? Thank you very much to whoever takes the time to respond! |

No g@y windows. you'll get much better performance. |
