I just picked up a Pro Box 112HB a 12'' sealed enclosure. It's for a JL audio W6v2.

I wanted to know if anyone knows if this is a good brand/box. I purchased it for sound quality over being louder.
Setup:

2 Channel: Vienna Acoustics Mozart Grand, T+A P 1230R, Primare SPA21, Oppo BDP-105
PC: Vienna Acoustics Haydn Grand, Cambridge Azure 650A v2 , Peachtree iDAC, Denon DVD-3800BDCI

    ok thanks ill put it in winisd looks pretty good, with the proper amp and filter you could expect at least 120 db with cabin gain. By the way what you planning to power it with

    Probox makes EXCELLENT boxes, but to put a W6 in a prefab is borderline illegal...or at least should be :)

    I haven't had a chance to really listen to it yet, but so far I don't think it's performing the way it should. I could be wrong. I'm going to get an SPL meter and measure it when I get a chance.

    SQ is definitely what I want. I gave it another listen I can say it sounds pretty good. I don't have a lot of experience listening to higher quality subs so wasn't sure to expect. Finally got everything installed tonight, going to listen to it some more tomorrow.

    I don't know about how loud a 12W6 sub will get. In a ported enclosure I think you would be very surprised...
