[QUOTE="db138, post: 7391551, member: 634506"] I lean more towards SQ, but I like to be able to get loud when I want to. I guess I'm just looking for more output. I'm decently satisfied with the way they sound and blend with everything else I have... I just get the feeling that they should get louder on 600w RMS than they do. It's much cheaper to buy a sheet of MDF and play around with a new box - not to mention it's a learning experience - than to buy new subs. After looking and measuring again, I think it would be better do round ports instead of a slot port. With the slot, they barely fit on the face of the box - 38" is the absolute widest I can go. Maybe the subs in line across the face and 2 round ports in the top corners? My other gear: HU: Pioneer AVH-P3200BT - getting ready to swap it out for a Kenwood KDC-X794 Components: CDT Audio CL-61A in kicks with the Upstage kit in A-pillars Midbass: Peerless SLS 6.5" in doors Amps: Alpine PDX-4.150 and 1.600 Edit: Oh yeah, these are in an '05 Scion xB [/QUOTE]
