Hi, i have a 12" shiva in a custom fiberglass box with about 1.5 cubes stuffed with polyfill.
Im running it with a 340 watt mtx thunder amplifier. Ever since i hooked it up it hasnt sounded right. I cant figure out if the sub is blown, the box too small, or the amp *****. I used to have an ma audio 1889i that i ran it with in a huge ported box and it sounded great. I dont know wtf is the problem.
Here's the problem:
1) certain songs will sound good with bass on 3, while other songs will hit 10x harder at 3, and some too light at 3
2) randomly in the middle of songs, the sub will hit reallly hard for like 10-15 seconds then it will start hitting normally again. It also randomly hits soft for a bit then goes to really loud then normal and on and off randomly like that.
3) generally just doesnt sound good. It seems like the hits are late or something. It just doesnt sound right.
If anyone knows what it might be please help me out here.
