SE's not hitting highs very loud

[plopy 10+ year member]

my 2 12" RE SE's arent hitting high very loud.

Im running them off a Audiobahn A2150HCT (at the moment) 1200W @1 X1

in a sealed box.

What can I do to make the highs louder? The lows are RIDICULOUSLY loud. Is it the amp, or the the sealed enclosure?

How high is "high" ?? As tese are subs, the lows should be all they do.....

You should mix sub sizes, underpower them and drive the amps into clipping.

Pardon me for making a joke (albeit lame), Mr Alwayspostsontopic. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif And, the noob comment really showed me. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif If you want to talk about making a helpful post, he was extremely vague (hence the joke), try asking about his setup rather than taking a blind stab at it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/idea.gif.5acb6a39a9b92425414c316dda202bad.gif

plopy, what do you consider 'high'? Wht are your xover settings? What are the other speakers in your system? Enclosure specs? Many things could cause someone to post this question.

smaller box? how high is high?

turn the crossover up if it's too low, which is usually the case. set it at 80hz.

how do you tune a sealed box?

O.P. are saying your mids/highs aren't keeping up? The sub box is only gonna play the low notes anyway.

different sized sealed boxes respond differently //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

He was more interested in calling me a noob than actually reading/comprehending the initial post, obviously. I was just letting that one slide, since Im such a 'noob'. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif
