[QUOTE="T3mpest, post: 8122419, member: 560148"] If your willing to drive I live in bloomington and would be happy to take a look at it.. You seem like your fairly new to all this, and I can let you know if your expecting too much or actually troubleshoot if there is an issue. Anyway 30 volts at 2 ohms is 450 watts. Your only gaining maybe 1-2db over the RF sub you had in the vehicle before. Generally that's maybe another click or two on a volume knob, not much change at all. Most subs are going to be very similar in a medium/small sealed box. Unless you dump alot of power on the sub and it has the excursion and powerhandling to make use of it, SPL won't change much by switching subs, especially with 10's since alot of them are mechanically limited vs a 12 or 15.
