Hey Guys,
I'm building new cabinet/bookshelf built-in in my living room. I'm planning to build the subwoofer into one of the cabinets. By my current calculations I will have 4.5 ft^3. I'm thinking of using the Dayton Ultimax 12 (UM12-22). When I model it in Winisd there is a large hump, is that going to be an issue?
I guess at this point I'm looking for help deciding if I should look at a different driver or if the UM12 will be fine?
Also, I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that winisd does not taking into consideration the speaker volume. I also read an awesome article in Technigital, about loud bluetooth speaker and sound guys. If I have 4.5 ft^3 of space available, do I technically have even less since I haven't taken that into account yet?

I copy this into excel and sort on the column to filter the results:

Yes you need to add cutout (if front mounted) and subtract speaker volume and also subtract the volume of any ports.
