[QUOTE="1ndatrunk, post: 5279859, member: 596922"] I've searched the threads for days now and still don't have any concrete answers, so I'll just ask you guys. In the trunk of my car I want to either go with three 18s sealed, or one 18 ported, both on 2000watts. The subs would be 3 Mach 5 MJMs sealed in a 9-10cuft enclosure. The single sub would be an AQ HDC3 18 in 7cuft@38hz. I'm sure the sealed subs would get lower and sound better than the ported single sub, but which will get louder? The MJs would only actually get a 1.3 load, so probably only about 1700-1800watts, or 600watts per sub. The AQ on the other hand would get a good amount of clean power and have more room in my trunk to "breath". Which would you choose? Will the cone area, eventhough they're sealed, be enough to take the AQ? [/QUOTE]
