Just use the box in the PDF from the Kicker site.

It's what I have in my car and it's more than good enough for daily use.

If you really want SPL then, like Yuli said, the music will sound like crap. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

that is roughly the same design I run my 12" L7 in.

It hits decently deep for spl but still maintains sound quality.

as close as possible just how its in the pic

also i just realized something, for best performance the port peices should be 12 and 8 instead of 14 and 6. so if u havent cut the wood yet change those peices to 12 and 8
