They CAN take more power, but also can generate more heat under circumstances. Bigger boxes, like the guy said above, offers less of a break, and the sub is easier to experience over excursion. Using programs can help determine the subs sweetspot, but cabin tuning cant be done with a modeling program easily at all. my peaks in my car are 49, 51, and 72hz.  my box was around 44-45hz. depending how i tilt, move, rotate my box, changes my peak.</blockquote>
