[QUOTE="tsenfw, post: 4104848, member: 581534"] 2000 Mustang 1 12" claw mag in 2cu ft box tuned to approx 32hz firing to the rear of trunk. Directed audio d2400 (approx 1000-1200 watts at 1 ohm) 6.5" Pioneer rev's US Amps IS2100 After recently installing my comps I've been kind of disappointed with my bass coming from the mag. For rock it sounds pretty good but rap doesn't sound as good. Like on tracks that have been posted in bass mix threads, the power is definitely there (you can feel your hair moving slightly and can feel the air pressure) but it doesn't sound too great on most tracks. I've deadened my front doors but have not had a chance to do the trunk yet. I have some rattling that I need to get rid of. I guess I should deaden before I try to start diagnosing but was wondering if you guys had any ideas. I always hear mags have great SQ. Does this only apply to newer generations of the model? Am I just expecting too much output out of and I'm putting too much power too it? Should I try facing the sub forward? The enclosure completely blocks the area where the seats fold down. Also, when playing Late night trip, the sub doesn't seem to handle the really low hits too well. Like you can hear the sub working but the output is greatly reduced. Is this because the note is so low or could it be a huge drop off because it's below the tuning of my box? What's the lowest frequency hit on Late night trip? [/QUOTE]
