[QUOTE="krony, post: 5770526, member: 608882"] I was having issues w/ a pioneer champion series sub I bought for my wife. It was not hitting as expected at all. I built a 2.45 ft3 ported box. Long story short. She had 2 10" kickers, she wanted more bass, so I took the 10's out and threw in the 12. Not even I was happy w/ the performance, figured "it is what it is." I figured it was the box. My wife talks me into throwing all three subs in together since I was gonna build a new box. So I built the box for all three subs. 1.75 ft3 ported for the sub... still sucked. The 10's running under powered off a generic amp @ 4 ohms justed creamed the 12 running off an alpine @ 2 ohms. I take the car to a stereo shop, the guy comes out to see what's up and looks at me like a crackhead. Is there anything wrong w/ running different size subs in one car? Is this not practical? I've noticed the difference between the lows of the 12 and the respsonsiveness of the 10's. As for the 12, it was a manufacture defect. Pioneer is currently shipping me a new sub. [/QUOTE]
