Going to be running it on an alpine amp that pushes 1000 [email protected] Manufacturer only reccomends ported enclosures, and anywhere from 3-5 cu/ft for box volume. Anyone ever build a box with similar parameters? I wanna keep it at the smaller end, any suggestions?

    You did not specify sealed or ported Off the top of my head, sealed - 2-2.5; ported - minimum 3 cu ft closure w/3” diameter 15-20” in length.

    You did not mention performance expectations such as F3. WinISD is free to use to model most any driver.

    Canare 14 ga - LCR tweeters inside*; CC outside
    BJC 10 ga - LCR mids, inside* & out
    8 ga Powerline - LR woofers, inside* & out
    *soldered

    LR: tri-amped RTi A7 w/Rotels. Woofers - 980BX; M&T - 981
    CC: Rotel RB981 -> bi-amped CSi A6
    5 Audio Pro Subs: LFE & CC - B1.39; all others - Evidence
