Hello and thank you in advance for your valuable advice.
Blew my JL 12w7 sub.
Thinking about getting a RE XXX or Adire Brahma 12 inch.
Here are the questions:
1.Could I make it fit even tho the mounting hole diameter is different? Is it even worth doing?
12w7 10.5"
www.jlaudio.com/enclosures/HO112RW7.html
XXX 11.15"
www.reaudio.com/flash_index.html
Brahma 11.125"
www.adireaudio.com/Files/TechPapers/DriverSizes.pdf
if so, how?
2.Would a XXX or Brahma give "higher output" in this "special" box than the suggested enclosures in their manuals.
3.What would you do if you were in my position?
sincerely
Al

first of all, build a new box as it will sound better. if the "special" ed box is ported dont even think about putting either of those drivers into it. if it is sealed and is within the recommended range of cubic feet for the brahma or xxx than you would be fine technically.
