    OK, I've got 2 10" Orion XTR Series 2 subs, and am looking for a 3rd. i'm going to build a sealed box for them, but don't know how big to build it. I'm thinking somewhere along the lines of .7-1.0 cubes, box will; be designed for maximum SQ. 3 10's, and 750 Watts RMS, SPL will be there. I need SQ. Can anybody give me any help? I believe that Orion recommends either .75 or .85 cubes, but not sure. What size box should I go for, though, or should I follow what Orion Says. Thanks.

    Cab anybody else help me, because nobody on the other forums will give me anything other than (follow manufacturers box suggestions). I mean, thats no always a bad thing, but I want to know what this sub really shines in for SQ purposes. And, I know you guys over here are a little smarter than the guys on CAF, and the Canadian Car Audio Board, and of course, Poo. Thanks in Advance to anybody that helps me.

    your subs are sealed box subs. they nees about .88-.1 for a nie flat response. I would say 3 cubes total would be good match.

    in a sealed box it will not matter if it is before or after displacement


    it takes about a 25% change in size to effect anything, those subs will not displace that much....
