[QUOTE="chicoc48, post: 285199, member: 549291"] Just got a decent deal on a pair of Eclipse 87121DVC's (previous subs were JL12w3's) for my crew cab truck. They seem really quiet to me. My Xtant 121's should be pushing 250 RMS to each of them, and even with the sub control all the way up on my Alpine 9815, they still barely rattle the mirror. I know the box may be on the small side of what is ideal(~.75 ft^3) , but it's stuffed with poly-fill, and I don't want to give up the back seat to build something different. Any suggestions would be appreciated-- More power? Something I'm missing on the HU? Just crank the gains? If the subs say they can handle 300 rms, is an extra 50 watts over what I have going to make them pound that much more? This is really starting to frustrate me- my bud's Ford Explorer with a Single Pioneer 10" and a cheap Sony amp is just as loud or louder than my high-end stuff. I'm taking any suggestions on what to try next!!! I'm quite disappointed with this setup. Thanks for your time!! chico [/QUOTE]
