New amp?? Or both the subs and amp if you can afford?

You would get a lot more bass out of a vented box for your mtx subs but your looking at 3 cubic feet per sub.. So considering your in a truck it depends if youve got an extended cab or not. If you do start tearing it up and get those subs in a big vented box. If you dont have enough room you should have about 1.75 cubic feet behind each of those subs in a sealed box for good results. The frequency response wont be as high as it would be in a vented box but sometimes you just dont get that option. As far as your amp goes you should have about 300 watts behind each of those subs. Looking at MTXs own testing their best results for SPL comes in a 2.93 cubic foot single reflex bandpass box but that doesnt mean it sounds good //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif Goodluck.
