[QUOTE="damname101, post: 8765835, member: 684071"] Hey all! So i finally got my amazon order: -2x10" subs rockford fosgate primes r/2 dual vc 4 ohms -pyramid AMERICA (<----thats how they suckered me in) amp pb3818 5000 watt -sealed box, not sure the specs, fits in trunk of 08 mazda 3 with 6 in" to spare on either side....somewhat deap but kinda stumpy and the box is divided. -android stereo, engerwall special from amazon I have been installing stereos, whenever i get a different car, since like 1993. Somewhere beyond noob and before pro lol. Anyway, i slapped this thing in and immediately had to return the head unit. I finally get a new hu installed and got the amp powered and speakers jumping.....but no thumpin.... It puts out weak sound that sounds like shiz. So i wired both VC on each speaker and it sounded a bit louder but still crappy. I checked my polarities and reversed the rca jacks and it sounds a bit louder. I then took a speaker out while it was jamming and it thumped a bit harder....ok..... so i cut 1.5" holes in the sides of the box and it still sounds like shiz. You can barley feel it, the rearview mirror isnt moving and it really isnt any lourder than my HU. I dont get it... what am i missing here? ANY and ALL help will be greatly appreciated. :) [/QUOTE]
