[QUOTE="stangme01, post: 864340, member: 554027"] i think its a mix of having a ported box, hitting your cars resonant frequency, and the characteristics of the L7 subs. for 1 with a ported box, the extra low end combined with cabin gain will make the low end REALLY LOUD compared to upper bass frequencies like 50hz-80hz. Resonant frequency of the car will hit its note and make that note LOUD and the rest will not be as loud. Thats why an EQ is good so you can reduce the output at that frequency. L7's are kind of bottom heavy and boomy by nature. I think you should try using the recommended sealed enclosure for them after you try all your troubleshooting. You'll probably like it better if you like your music to sound balanced. Top end will be alot more punchier too. [/QUOTE]
