[QUOTE="jockhater2, post: 8074795, member: 636023"] For the subwoofer. Do a Passive Radiator set up. Or if you go ported. Tune a bit higher. Around 34-37 hertz. I listen to metal/rock also. Mostly melodic death metal, metalcore, deathcore and so on. Probably the same as you. And when I tuned my first box to 32 hertz...it wasn't what I wanted for metal. And yes. You can get a FAR better sub than a JL if you check around in the classifieds. Or hit [USER=614593]@mylows10[/USER] ; who is a vendor. Your best bet for the front stage is to build your own. Check out [url=http://www.parts-express.com]Parts Express: the #1 source for audio, video & speaker building components[/url] or [url=http://www.madisound.com]Madisound Speaker Components: distributor of loudspeaker drivers and parts for speaker builders.[/url] and pick up some raw drivers. For the rear fill just run them off the HU. No point in amping those. Your best bet for a SPL 8" sub is a AB 8" or a sundown 8" [/QUOTE]
