I currently have a prefab box for 2 12's. I been researching recommended dimensions. My box is .2 ft3 bigger than what JL recommends. I was thinking to put a divider in the middle of the box to make it single enclosure with a 1" thick HMD board this would lower the ft3 but not exactly to specs. Is this small amount going to make a big difference, is it just fine tuning, or making it single and reducing the ft3 being combined help a lot more? Would you worry about .2 ft3.
And for those who don't know, I'll save you from asking. ft3 means cubic feet.
Im also thinking of just selling the 12's and the box, buy 2 10w7's and build a box for them so I know it's right.

Well the the closer you get to the recommend specs the better your subwoofers will perform. What you will notice the closer you get to the specs is a more accurate reproduction of sound. Question are you going for sound(db) or for sound quality(spl)?

I want dB but dont want to comprimise the sound quality or damage the V.C.'s. But, sound quality is not spl, dB is measured in spl.

You are correct, the optimal box will increase the performance of the speakers all the way....

No, I think I am leaving it for the rest of the summer. I want to get rid of them and get some JL W7's
