Their RMS ratings are normally higher than they should be, their SQ isnt too good, the build quality is sub par... It is just another low-end brand.

From the ones ive dealt with they just sound terrible and their build quality is less than satisfactory. One thing I can say for them is they do get mildly loud.

could it be the box, the ones i had couldn't even fit in a regular 12" sub box. its like you had to buy their brand of box or some shit and it comes with instrutions on specific boxes that give different sound quality.

No, it's more than likely no the box. The ones I've incountered had to much mechanical noise.

could some one tell me where the test leads go to check my ground wire from my amp and what it should read, cuz my amp isn't performing to its capabilities unless the amp is shitty.

They normally dont fit in pre-fab boxes because the basket on them is too wide, and wont allow the subwoofer to fully fit through the hole. And no its not the box. I messed around for a few months with an audiobahn sub to try and get it to sound decent (building several different boxes and trying different power configuration) and I never could get a bahn to even sound half way decent.

The ground wire? Are you testing resistance? Sounds a little advanced for your current knowledge level...

That's why they are not performing. You have overrated amps.
