Hi guys! I was wondering if you could help me. I have two Alpine SWR-1022D subwoofers that I would like to install in a new boat I purchased. My space is kind of limited for the enclosure. From what I have drawn up so far I am looking at a net internal volume of 2.0 cubic feet as a maximum for both woofers. I was planning on leaving the box sealed, but I am open to any ideas. I know a lot of you guys are pretty good at box design, and was wondering if you could help me out with an enclosure that would sound great for me.
Thanks,
Shawn

Ported or sealed you could make that volume work great.

Installing in a boat sort of changes things - removes the trunk and car itself - two enclosures - but a simple sealed enclosure couldn't possibly go terribly wrong.

If you don't have any particular install goals - general output/sound quality - go ahead and drop them in a 2cft~sealed enclosure. I betcha it would sound great . . .
