Neither one will "sound decent" but the first one, the bandpass, will be the loudest. Most likely it was intended for rap.

there are plenty of subs for that price range which will sound much better than audiobahn

You might look at some of these MTX loaded boxes for good sound quality and will hit hard too. ------------- Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

You just need the enclosure, not loaded with subs? https://www.subzeromfg.com/productsb.htm These are well-built enclosures. You would need to contact the maker of the box, no matter which one you use, to make sure the box type and air volume is appropriate for the subs that you have. ------------- Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

I just had a guy come to me with the bandpass box with the 12s you listed. he was tired of it sounding like garbage so he had me build him a diffrent box for the same subs. I built a 2 cuft box vented to 32 hz that fits under the rear seat of a truck. it sounds alot louder and cleaner then the box that the sub were pre loaded in. Your best bet spend you money on subs, and build the box yourself, or pay someone to do it. Pre-loaded boxes typically sound like garbage

What type of subs do yo have? Your best bet is a box specificaly designed for your speakers and the best way to get that would be to either learn how to build it yourself or go to your local shop and have them do it for you. Thats usually the cheapest and best way to make sure you get what you want in my experiance. ------------- Nik

if you find a car stereo shop that doesnt build custom boxes then do yours yourself and take it to them and tell them to give you a job.
