[QUOTE="fly_marlin, post: 8384671, member: 660781"] To clarify, deeper bass and more SPL don't necessarily go hand in hand, so you'll need to find a happy medium. To get louder, you will need to tune your system as close as possible to your car's resonant frequency - usually around 45Hz. That is not very deep, but generally louder than lower tuned systems. In most cases, if you want your system to be musically pleasing, you want to stay around the 30-35Hz range - depending on the driver itself. To get the deeper bass, you need: 1. plenty of power 2. subs with good amount of excursion 3. properly built enclosure to cater to your taste and the drivers Additionally, you should definitely go with a ported enclosure. The larger it is, the less power you need to get loud. If I'm gauging you correctly, you'll want a pretty large box tuned to about 35Hz. Also, I'd like to dispel the myth that larger subs play lower. You'd be surprised what you can do with your same subs in a properly built box. [/QUOTE]
