Prefab Box for RSd 12

I did a lot of googling but haven't found anything good yet at 1.8 cuft which is pretty huge for a 12 but Errin and everyone else say it is the best for the rsd sealed.

Anyone know where I can find a 1.8 cuft prefab box for under 130? Qlogic has one that can be used as sealed or ported but Qlogic is that 130 I hope to come under : ).

ALSO, If I am only giving the RSd 170 watts(2channels of RSd500.4/dvc sub), will 1.8 still be the best size to use for the sub?

You know... I just installed two RSD 12's in a ~2cuft shared box that I had previously used for my Xmax 12s. They sound great! I even tried a single RSD 12 in an old 2cuft Xenon 12 box. The one woofer definitely played a bit lower, but having two woofers in the same airspace was louder over the whole frequency range. With a tiny bit of EQing, I could lift the bottom end up to the same level (proportionally) as a single woofer in the bigger box as well.

Basically I wouldn't lose hair over it. If you are buying a prefab, you are compromising anyways... Just get the biggest box you can. I see lots of them at 1.5cuft, which would be perfect IMO.

Thanks. I was stressing a little : ). When all you guys make recommendations that you know work, I feel like I am losing out if I don't take advantage of the knowledge.
