thanks guys! had an awesome birthday.... went out for some karaoke, got stuck in the snow and then had my friends fiancee who is a firefighter come help us out lol

Thanks for the info. Maybe that is why, I came from a ported box to a sealed box, so ma...

So I finally finished the box. Some quick notes about it: My cuts were a little off; 1/8" here, 1/16" there, so not all sides are level. When I was test playing I found an air leak on the bottom right side panel. I just put some more sealant on that area Here is a pic and a video of it: ht...

So I went out at 12 midnight the other night to install the new amp and temporary setup of 1 of the 2 RE subs in my old enclosure. Let me tell you, this sub sounds so much better than the old RE sub I had in there, and this is ~125W less power! I cant wait to hear 2 of them with 375W of power in my ...

when your subs are bigger than your rims, thats when you know you are a basshead! lol
