[QUOTE="ultimate157, post: 2485285, member: 566638"] high pass on your sub amp?? You've clearly got an install issue if you can barely hear the sub. Go out and push the cone in lightly. If it comes back out instantly, the box is completely sealed. If it slowly comes back out, there is a leak in the box. To give you an idea on how important sealing the box is, here's an example. I built a 4.5cube sealed box to see what a 12" would do in such a large box. I was able to flex the roof of my jeep a good inch at 20hz. I took the sub out, put it back in, and it was 10 fold quieter because of a tiny air leak between the mounting ring and the box. [/QUOTE]
