What size enclosure do the Eclipse SW9122 subs require sealed?? I can't find any info on the net about enclosure size..

SP_L.pdf ( manual for Titanium series incl. SW9122 )

This manual specifies "small sealed enclosure" but doesn't give exact volume. However, in this manual are pre-made enclosures designed for use with these woofers. Looking at the SW6124BX 12" enclosure system, it shows outside dimensions of the enclosure. Using this site's volume calculator and figuring 3/4" thickness of baffles, the interior volume comes out to 1.3 ft^3. This is near the same amount of volume that I have seen Rob recommend (1.25 ft^3) for Eclipse 12" subs.

Thanks a bunch!! So you think 1.25 cu/ft per sub would be a good start?
