[QUOTE="HCCA, post: 6453356, member: 571196"] I like them, but I'm beginning to believe the guy I bought one of them off of. They are best when ported. They sound as good ported, as sealed, only louder! He was a former fan of sealed, only. As sealed usually does sound more natural. However, more subs are being made that break that mold. The W12GTi is one of them. My only problem, is after tuning, I think I'm going to make some changes. Not sure just what, yet, but...changes. I could go ported, and be done. It would be louder, but I'm oriented more towards SQ. If I go for SQ only, then I might just use one of them with 1200W, ported, but use one of the other amps for a MB in the door. OR, get a set of the BA SPG 60's. They have double the excursion capability. No need for a dedicated MB. Anyway, lot's of idea...not a lot of answers, yet. Right now, I need to get to bracing my doors. The MB is vibrating the doors, pretty hard. I think that if I can get the square tube steel braces to fit, it should make the MB tighter, and the SQ even a bit better. NOTE: You really have to dampen the shiznit out of the doors, on '02 Explorers! [/QUOTE]
