[QUOTE="azphat12, post: 7218169, member: 619925"] If you go to the Skar website/forum they are doing sub exchanges. I sent them an email and they said if I send them my JL 12's they would send me 2 12 Skars and a ported box + some money on my end. I am not sure what they do with my subs...maybe they break em down and make other subs out of em..who knows. Seemed like a pretty good deal. The other route was to buy 2 subs...build a box. Then sell my JL's on craigslist. I had these JL's in a 3.5cu ft ported box tuned to 32hz and they sounded really good. The box is just too big for my new car, so took some left over MDF and just built a sealed box. Figured I would see if I liked it and keep some trunk room. Well I hate it! lol. So I am either going to send my JL's in for the trade, or I will build another 3.5cu ft box and save for some SA 12's or something. I will just build it to my new cars dimensions instead. On a good note....my mids/tweet are sounding really good. But my amps are getting warm. I took a hour drive and when I got home I popped the trunk and felt the amps. They were pretty hot....the mid/tweet amp was hotter then the sub amp. So tomorrow I will get in and check the voltage and things. I was only able to get 2/3 of the Big 3 done. Got the grounds...but the battery terminal I have only has 1 1/0 and 1 4ga....so didnt run the alternator portion. Going to order some Tsunami double 1/0 terminals and replace these hopefully by next weekend. [/QUOTE]
