i just was thinkin somethin better that i could power with my amp. its a monoblock 1X500watt RMS at 4 or 2 ohm. it would be cheaper to do a single good sub like a Alpine SWR 10" 4 ohm versus 2 cheaper 10's. the type R RMS is 300-600 watt an thats at 129$ on crutchfield versus tryin to get cheaper subs that hit a smaller RMS and wiring parallel.
for an idea. i got my amp (MA Audio M1900XE) powering 2 base kicker subs, (the yellow an black goes perfect with my car). i get good kick outta em. but somethin a little more solid would be nice and buyin new subs and a new amp isn't in the budget currently, i gotta pay for a wedding in the near future.

If you are dying for a 10/12 just grab an older style Audiobahn for cheap on ebay. I had a pair of 12" Audiobahn Eternals back in the day that would blow you away on a 26w guitar amp.
How many people even know what that is? I didn't until I saw people talking about it on SMD and I went to google it.

Correct. @33 inches wide you are not going to have much room between those fenderwells.
yea ported/bandpass are the same in my opinion. i've heard both and i still prefer a good sealed enclosure over either. just personal preference. you going to leave it as a built box or do a custom fiberglass front for it?
ported and bandpass are completely different.
As far as the box its not too wide that its not going to work but its wide enough that if it were'nt as wide than it would perform better
