[QUOTE="gckless, post: 8148682, member: 635756"] I see a couple problems. First, gain wasn't set with any accuracy at all. You might have been low, but you might have been clipping already. If you have a good ear, then that might not be as big of a concern. Bigger issue I see is the prefab box with a SSF of 25Hz. The box is probably tuned to somewhere in the 40's, so it's going to unload at high 30's, so depending on what you listen to, is going to treat those subs like crap. Did you hear them bottom out at all? Better yet, take some pictures, especially of the coil. From your description, you didn't set things too wrong, but I'm sure the coil says otherwise. And I highly suggest you turn this thread from being a suggestion thread to being a diagnostic thread. [/QUOTE]
