Okay I have one Kicker L7(dual 4 ohm) on the way...(for now) I am gonna order 2 or 3 more...
Now how big of a box should I make for 3 and for 4??? I like sealed boxes..since I have made lots of them and was very impressed by sealed over ported.
But now I am going more for SPL so I was to make these as loud as possible!!So I think im gonna have to go ported
The amp is a US Amps VLX-400...2400watts RMS@1ohm (can do alot more)

All this is gonna go into a 1995 LHS!

Any info and responses are appreciated.

Jay

 i take back my statment about 2.5 cubes per sub that might be right but i dont want you to spend 3 days makeing a box then not have it sound good  go to www.kicker.com you can get the right specs for spl for those subs and the port specs also hope that helps
