Dd 9512

[s94658 10+ year member]

I have done some searching on box specs for this sub however I just want some opinions on box specs for the purpose of what I will be using it for.

To start the sub is a 9512 F motor, This will be for a daily driver and not for competitions or anything, I will be putting 2000-2500rms to it from a critical mass ula2500 at 1 ohm. I listen to both hip hop and rock music but mostly hip hop. I need the dimensions to be a little on the shorter side and not super wide but can go pretty deep as this will be in a trunk. I want it tuned in the high 30's like 37-39, maybe someone can give me their recommendation on the tuning. Also can someone tell me if I should go 2.5 cu ft or higher than that.

For what I will be using this sub for someone with more experience please give me full specs on a box that would work for me so I can take it to my box guy and have him make it for me. Thanks in advance.

I ran my 2512 at 2.25 at 38 and it sounded pretty good... If say tune a little lower though...

i would drop the tuning a good bit. i personally dont like tuning over 32 for a daily application and most of the time lower than that.
