[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8427344, member: 650438"] kicker is kicker... BUT they are still subs, and they are in your possession, make due with what you have. I've been to plenty of bass meets where a lot of guys get decent output out of kickers in a properly designed box on crappy hifonics zues power. Wouldnt you love to make those guys eat their words and give your setup a lil respect? Its not the subs a lot of times, its the install that matters. Right now you basically have a bleh whatever install with those sealed boxes. Here's a box design for you. Build a square box thats 20x 23 x 46 with two baffles and buy a 10" sonotube [B] [/B][URL="http://www.homedepot.com/p/SAKRETE-10-in-x-48-in-Concrete-Form-Tube-65470006/100350260"][B]SAKRETE 10 in. x 48 in. Concrete Form Tube-65470006 - The Home Depot[/B][/URL][B] [/B] cut it to 14 inches length attach it and have the 4 subs face up and have port firing to the rear. You'll have a 9 cubic feet net enclosure tuned to 33hz. Thats 2.25 cubic feet per sub. This box will work with most of your future sub upgrades too and you can always change the port easily.
