[QUOTE="el_chupo_, post: 2693911, member: 559190"] Here is why. Lets assume that you currently have two Dual 4 ohm subs, wired to 1 ohm final load. To add another one, you will have to rewire. and will lose power from your amp, or drop the load below 1 ohm, and possibly ruin the amp. You will have to build a new box for another sub. You will have to spend money to buy a new sub, and have someone else install it. or, you can get a quality box build, since it doesnt sound like you do any of your own system, you can run it with your current amp, and have no wiring issues. And at the end of the day, it will probably be louder than 3 sealed subs. [/QUOTE]
