[QUOTE="43de, post: 3080215, member: 577770"] I have an 10" alpine type X sub (1000watts RMS) in a sealed box thats about 2-2.5 cubic feet powered by a JL Audio e1800 amp (also 1000rms @ 2ohms). The sub has no power whatsoever, from inside the car it hits just better than my Lexus Bose stock subwoofer and it's not that loud at all. I was shocked as to how it performed because it is such a high-powered, expensive, and huge sub. I have the sub wired correctly running at 2 ohms. I have seen some people say that this sub hits so hard its unheard of, but either this subs sucks complete *** or there's something majorly wrong. I was thinking maybe it could be the box but I have absolutely NO idea what is wrong.
