[QUOTE="232Stanger04, post: 731733, member: 558797"] Build you own box, its really easy, custom boxes look much better and sound so much bettter Bigger boxes usually mean: 1) sub can handle less power than usual 2) The sub plays lower frequencies easier 3) *usually* more SPL I would probably put that Type R in a bigger than 1 cube I would probably put it in a 1.5ft^3 like he did Either way you go, WATCH THE GAINS! Over powering usually doesn't kill speakers, people kill speakers (aka CLIPPING!) most of the time. People want to run 600Watts and turn the gains more than 3/4 way up and then have the bass remote turned up to MAX, thats a good way to blow the speaker [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] So in the end they are sending 600+watts that are sending HORRIBLY DISTORTED SINE waves to the driver, in the end blowing the coils [/QUOTE]
