Since it's christmas time and all, i thought i'd spend some money on the family and put off the purchase of a new sub till the first of the year.

So, i have two 12" mtx 6000's in a sealed box right now. Well i'm on vacation and kinda bored, so i thought i'd build a ported box for them. I'm gonna run both in a common chamber box, around 4.5cuft tuned to 30hz-35hz.

I wonder how their gonna sound!

Am i way to bored or just crazy!! [Big Grin]

excellent idea !!!

one of my favorite all-around boxes i ever made was a 4.25 cf box for 2 12s tuned to 32hz with the woofers on the outside and a vent in the middle.

DO IT!!!! you'll be glad you did!!! [Big Grin]

Sweet. I was looking at the MTX website last night and they recomended a box tuned to 33. I think i'll try that and see how she goes.

After christmas i'm planning on running a single 15 in a box about that big. It should be nice and loud. [Smile]
