	hi Felipe! have a look in the sub designs section of the speaker plans site....the c sub and the 184 sub are both suitable for the omega pro drivers... ...or you could design a direct radiating, vented cabinet...in which case you would need to calculate the volume of box required to suit the driver and the width and volume of the vents or ports to suit the box volume.....this can be done on a program such as boxplot which i believe is in the links section of speaker plans site....this may not be the most advanced program but i had good results when using it to design vented cabinets for some eminence sigma pro 650's.... ...the plans on this site will i'm sure be more efficient and therefore better subs....but i'm not sure what will work best with what you already have....... hope that this is of some use........anyone else? cheers

	Yes, as Dubsuction says, the C Sub or 184 sub are suitable for the Omega.
