Coat inside of box with fiberglass resin, first by painting inside of box face by brush, then by pouring it in , and tipping box side to side. Careful not to spill out Use 20% more catalyst to speed curing so it gels and coats thick. Use .25-.5gal resin per side, and do one side at a time. Should begin to Cure in 5 to 10min, and be solid but tacky in 10 to 15. Wait a day after resin cures, then add polyfill to inside of box, fill cavity 50-60%, but leave a few inches clearance from subs . Reinstall subs with light coating of silicone. Let drie couple hours, Thump On

Ur gonna have to add port holes. 3" hole with a oh Id say a 6" in length abs piping for the port hole. Two of them. One for eachside. I did the same now the box doesnt sound like its gnna fall apart.

There about 2inches thick around where the subs go and an inch thick all the way around. The box sounds really good I bought one for my12s pioneer comps series pro there 3500watts and they take it. But after time the box does began to show cracks. Just depends on how much bass your using. Great box tho

I honestly don't remember. I installed mine a year ago. But I think you can. I know there is a sub out that I hooked mine into. But why would you want to? Bass is good.

Hay i have a Hifonic Brutus Mono 2000 watt 4 channel amp. Pushing my 2 (12" kickers) great power feeding my subs.

You can do either, the Fosgate site has a box dimension calculator for whichever you choose. You get better bass from a ported box.

I am planing on buying 2 of these subs this week & I have a Hifonics Brutus 1000 watt stable @ 1 Ohm amp ....to push these babies , am I going to run into problems ???

That should be more than enough. Of course gains and such need to be properly set. This single sub bangs my Magnum very hard. Alot louder and more bass than my coworker with his 6 sub eBay special stuff. Haha my 1 speaker. Make sure to break in sub well. Don't do like I did and get impatient and start banging it too loud too early.

If your subs are 4 ohm, then yes you can wire them in parallel to make a 2 ohm load. You should get roughly 450 to 500 watts per sub. Keep the bass boost off and the gains turned down and your good to go.

You should be okay with that. Just be sure not to overpower it or you will blow the sub. I've used underpowered amps on mine and they sound amazing!

Using some sort of audio manager (I use Realtek HD Audio Manager) also since the is a built-in bass controller for the sub there is no need for bass control through software unless tweaking for movies, music, etc...

I would let the sub handle a good portion of the lows. THX settings are 80hz, so I figure that's a good crossover point.

The best is slot ported as shown on the screen. I build my own and they always sound better.I got 2 cheap 20 dollar subs for my girlfriend and they sounded great.. Yes it will fit...

Yeah, I agree with Claudio. It would push them but it would probably overheat and go into protect mode before getting anything near the SPL that those 2 12's can make. You should get a 1000 watt amp instead and run them with the gain turned down a little so that your subs don't distort. You'll have plenty of headroom for your amp as well so that it runs cool and smoothly with no signal clipping.

Right now I have a 12" MTX sub that I enjoy just for the smooth bass, but I want to upgrade to a 12" Infinity Kappa sub. I would say a sub no more than 1200 watt max will satisfy.

Definately, you drill your own holes with this box and sony Xplodes fits all 12in sub portholes. All you have to do is make sure both subwoofers ,when you drill your holes, are perfect straight up and down, dont make the mistake of drilling gauky holes and screwing them in crooked.

Mine does a great job powering 4- 6 inch speakers . But I dont have a sub installed . if you want a strong bass I would look into a mono amp for the sub and this one for the speakers

Did you plug in the thin wire in the sub and sound bar? You can also adjust the bass via the controller. If you have done this and it still produces no bass I would suggest returning it
