[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8717743, member: 650438"] you are over complicating things. Do not mix two different kinds of subs, thats the biggest car audio taboo, Phase cancellations equals negative bass or **** sounding bass. Your biggest and only problem right now is you just are not loud enough plain and simple. You can start by getting a custom ported box built tuned to 35hz or so. Then upgrade your amp and get a bass knob, Then you'll need to find two safe levels of tuning for you, one for modern rap/trap and the other for your classics. They have different levels of strength in the bass so they need different settings. For example motley crue has -12 db bass levels in the recording while suicide boys has -5. Thats a giant jump in the amp gain settings for you to achieve similar bass strength. [/QUOTE]
