[QUOTE="hispls, post: 7548950, member: 614752"] Get an SPL meter first. There is no substitute for just building a ton of different boxes, different sizes, different tunings, different port sizes,all different orientations in your car. You'd be amazed what any given sub can do and the variety of different types of response you can get...even same box just pointed a different direction can be dramatic. I'd be leary of AQ just because of the common spider failure issue and the companie's hit or miss approach to handling the warranty. The only AQ I've ever seen around here had a spider issue and I seem to read a lot about them failing and AQ uses the "break in" boogeyman arguement to not honor warranty. Just keep it in mind that you may get one that'll work forever and perform well, but you have fair odds of getting a dud and having to come out of pocket to recone it. [/QUOTE]
