Just get a bigger amp 600-800 watts or bigger and watch the gains. Then come back and tell us what you think.

Why does everyone say it's the amp? Likely it's a poorly made box for those subs so remake the box for said subs and then see how it works. It's much less expensive.

so you think a bigger amp will make the whole thing better?? even though his box is tiny, not tuned correctly and dont have the adequate air space?

Redo the box first. By the sounds of it, the box is the main issue holding these subs back.

You said you had limited space.

Theres not much you can sure you can build a better box how much is that going to help with only 90 watts?

thank you, but he does want to upgrade to something with more bass. thats why i was thinking two CVR 12s with the correct box and a larger amp

First step IMO and definitely least expensive is to build a new box. Not very hard to do so, I can draw up plans and send them to you for free if you'd like, given some dimensions to work with.
