New member Username: CtmikePost Number: 8 Registered: Feb-06 | i was just curious as to what box type i should put my type r's in. there in a sealed box (little bigger then rec. specs)now and they sound pretty decent, but could be louder. just wanted some opinions if i should stay with a sealed box in the rec. specs or should i get a ported one? and if i should go ported, does anybody know where i can get a good one for 2 subs at, i don't have a place where i can build my own. |
