Is this an ok semi entry level sub... Eclipse SW7124DVC-T2? Is it ok for sound quality too?

That's my opinion. Take it, leave it, or correct me.

More than OK for sq. Use a 1.25 cu.ft net sealed box for this sub.

Are these as good as the Infinity Perfect 12 VQs? I am debating between these two subs. ------------- That's my opinion. Take it, leave it, or correct me.

Sorry for the double post, but I got a question. Is the continuous 450W power handling for each voice coil separately or the both coils combined? ------------- That's my opinion. Take it, leave it, or correct me.

Subwoofers are always rated by the *entire* woofer, so the rating is for both voice coils summed.
I've had no experiece with Eclipse equipment but the Perfect series of woofers is absolutely superlative.

Hi all
To cut a long story short the glue around the edge of my eclipse 87121.4 12” sub started to let go and instead of fixing it eclipse chose to replace it with a SW7124DVC-T2 12” sub.
I was looking at the specs for this sub and noticed that the Vas volume is quite large. 2.23 cubic feet. Can this sub be used in a sealed box would this be the size of the ported box? My old sub only needed a 1 cubic foot box for a sealed enclosure. 2.23 sounds damn big for a sealed enclosure.
What is Vas exactly? Is it a number used to calculate box characteristics, the size of a sealed box, the size of a ported box, etc.
My new sub can be found here https://www.eclipse-web.com/sw7100/sw7124.html
Has anyone used these subs before? I’m thinking about buying a new amp to run the thing. A jaycar 2x150W rms @ 4 ohms. It can be bridged to put out 1x500W rms.
Also, this is kinda a silly question but when manufacturers recommend a box size do they take into account the volume the sub takes up?
Any help/comments would be much appreciated.
cheers
