Plus 1 for the vented enclosure. A single 12 in a big ported box will deliver insane low bass! the output would easily exceed 2 12's in a sealed box in the 20 to 30 hz range. I built a system in RX-7 that used a 1.75 cu enclosure tuned to 20 hz using a JL 12W6 (original version) and pushing only 250 watts rms from a Phonex Gold ZX amp. It was louder, deeper, and sounded far better than the pair of 12" kicker comps I previously had in there.
