If there is nothing wrong with the sub, build a ported box to SoundSplinter suggested specs. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Those aren't SPL subs by any stretch, but port that bish fa sho!

I think the recommended specs are around 5-6 cu.ft. tuned to 28hz.

If you want more output, you could go a bit smaller tuned to 32-35hz.

or larger, for more efficiency.

That size of a box is for the 18 not the 15. It is probably around 3-4 cubes ported.

Word. I had mine in 4 cubic ft. @ 28hz and I was very much a sealed box guy. That setup got nice and low and very loud, louder than my previous setup with

(4) AA Assassin 12s sealed. And did it with less power too.

Possibly, or your ears could just be use to it. The RL-p as mention above, is not a "SPL" sub. Its a very nice sounding sub that will work in various boxes and still sound amazing, but its not known for its ground shaking abilities lol.

I would seriously suggest porting it. What are you currently pushing it with?

Edit, reading>me saw it in your first post, sorry.
