Subject: don't run both, please


even though ported and sealed are 90 degrees out of phase, they don't sound right in the same car.

4 15's? and you want a wicked small box also..........

You can run really small boxes then eq the schmoo out of them.

Actually I wouldn't do that at all.

I was in a pickup with a 15" bandpass that could hit 150db, totally pointless.

"we lose the ability to tune amps and subs correctly"
uh, what? I'd like to talk to whoever said this to see what he means......... Perhaps he was refering to porteds acting squirly at high spls due to too small ports and then voice coil heating causing the drivers qts t

What are your goals?

I was looking into a wedge box for under the back seat of a dodge extendacab ram (10 years ago), box wasn't cheap then, can't imagine it is any cheaper now.
