oh do tell.


I know you were but I gave up ported boxes long ago because I drive a truck //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif It just ***** having this huge box right next to you.

I shall be patient.
In the meantime, make this his avatar.

I was thinking more of the line of nG's seamonster. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Actually I'll just go ahead and write a brief review.
The mag is def what people have said about it all along. It's a musical sub that easily blends with your front stage. However, that being said...I noticed a HUGE decrease in output from directly swapping my GTI for the Mag. The low notes are not being hit with authority like my gti. My box is 1.2^3 sealed and the gains weren't changed...direct swap...about 800 watts. I would say it's not for someone who wants a lot of bass but rather a sub to easily integrate with a decent front stage. I'm going to try it in my ported box later tonight. The good thing about it though, is the bass isn't boomy from a kickdrum it actually just sounds....nice I guess. lol

Tis why I like it. It gains more authority down low with a 2 cuft tuned enclosure, but not as much as a basshead would like. Sealed isn't optimal for compromise on that woofer. It needs ported, but not a large ported enclosure. My HE2s have more output in sealed than the mag too, but they are a sealed driver.

2K you will notice a big increase when you go ported. I did on minez.

Indeed and with only a 2.0 cuft requirement for ported it isn't terribly huge. Of course in his truck EVERY inch will count.

I will agree with you. In a standard cab truck, good sealed drivers are a must. Have you tried an IDQ?

also, to change subjects. What do you guys think about buying a digital picture frame as a valentines day gift? I've been researching them like mad and been finding some great stuff.

DO EEET! Good gift for a woman who doesn't have one. Get one with decent storage capability though. Don't go cheap. May even make a custom wooden trim frame for it, with some thoughtful wood burning on it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Chevy, I am gonna run the mag at 1.05 sealed...I don't expect much authority....I wonder if will blend better than my Q. I have my doubts.

If you can't get it to blend in sealed, then you expect too much. It's output plummets, but it gets a real gradual slope. No over abundance anywhere in the range. If this was a problem with your Q in sealed then I would say you need to play with processing more, because it is your car with the gremlin, not the drivers.
