when building a box for a subwoofer, is it important to follow both the volume and recommended box dimensions from the manufacturer? i know the volume is important, but how important is it to stay within their recommended box dimensions?

im not the first one to post that they lost the voicecoil on the jl sub. maybe some are weaker than others? was using a fosgate 800.2 and alpine 9886 deck. was giving it somewhere between 350-500 watts probably. if i used less it wouldnt move.

have any of you heard these speakers or use them? i need someone with some actual listening experience. tell me what you used that impressed you, i need some serious convincing. i hate that i have to use a shallow!

i was seriously impressed with the sound quality of the jl. i doubt anything would match the sq, but the speaker is soo fragile, i was probably only giving it 400 watts. it wasnt working all that hard and the voicecoil went. i really dont want to buy another speaker that just crapped out on me...

ok, so i have searched the forums, cause i know everyone likes to reply with "search the forums". i am trying to figure what shallow subwoofer to get. this has turned out to be a difficult task. i still do not know what to get. i had the jl 13tw5 shallow, gave it too much juice, so it took a...

anyone used the fosgate p3 shallow?

i checked the memphis, looks promising, i just hate buying something i am so unfamiliar with. anyone used the fosgate p3? i have had a few recommend it and could hear one before buying.

i dont know if i will ever truly know what happened. i am getting a refund on the sub. the audio shop said it was a bad voicecoil. i think i agree that too much power was possibly used. however, if i used any less, the sub would barely move. i think i need a sub that will put out a little more...

ok, back to the drawing board. i need some help. i need some recommendations on a subwoofer. i have a porsche carrera and the space in the back behind the seat is very small. i recently had a custom box built for a jl 13tw5. that jl sub blew for some reason, maybe too much power. i have decided...

you used to have a system, and now writing citations for systems makes you a chump in my book. i hope someone that used to be a cop doesnt stop to help you one day when you need it.
