[QUOTE="fly_marlin, post: 8387704, member: 660781"] Yes, think Jeff is right about that. You may be getting a weak signal, but don't think that's the problem. Here's the list of what could be wrong: 1. This rattling you desire is caused my lower frequencies. The lower the note, the more power you need to reproduce it at the same level. This means you have to have a pretty powerful amp to be able to keep up with the power demands. 2. To play this low, subwoofer has to have plenty of excursion. The lower the note, the further the sub has to move to reproduce it at the same level. 3. Regardless of what sub you have, the musicality of your system is dictated by your box. The bigger the box, the lower it will play really. A lot of prefab boxes are tuned higher because that allows for additional output. Ported boxes that can dig low and sound musical are usually tuned lower. I know you may not want to spend extra money, but based on what you're saying, you need more power, more excursion, and a ****** box. [/QUOTE]
