One sentance made no sense in my original post below, I was trying to say sheet info says 1.5cf ported
(with no port specs) but the DVC installation manual for all the Fosgate
subs show you the bottom port specs but are talk about 2cf' per sub. Looks
liek the scale says from 2' to 4' where did the 1.5 go? or are they talking
about what the sub will see out of a 11.5 sealed with the port specs?
