[QUOTE="DaveWS, post: 8574520, member: 673161"] Fair point. Must admit though I hate how most head units look, especially when I just be using my phone in a holder anyway. It's a double DIN, and I've got a single drawer and a cover in there to hide the amp, and a phone holder. I like how minimal it looks, but maybe a head unit is needed... Still, the issue is response, not volume. The sub is loud enough, but it's very peaky around the 100 hz range (yeah I checked with a sine sweep). My cheap Z2300's are way louder at 40hz. The door speakers don't do much below 120 hz, so if I adjusted the sub crossover to say 80hz or lower, I'd have a big hole [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] Does the driver itself make much of a difference? Should I look for a lower rated 10 inch designed for a smaller enclosure? It seems that the bigger rated the speaker, the bigger the box needs to be for the same frequency? [/QUOTE]
