Not at all, I just needed something for now until I get enough money for some real stuff....would cutting the hole make it louder?

into the sub box.

not necessarily it would most likely sound like a box with a hole in it

The only expierence I have with lightning audio is sending 1000 watts to one of their 12's and let the show begin. So I cant help you

make a folded horn //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

it'll make any sub sound great, and go loud!!!

only problem, it'll cost more to make than the sub actually cost, and take up 10 times as much space... LOL!!!

There are many online vendors that sell the big name equipment.

Most do not carry the authorized dealer warranty but instead replace it with their own in-house warranty that is supposed to replicate the manufacturer's warranty.

I have purchased from onlinecarstereo.com once with no problem. Give them a shot if you are cool with ordering online and are interested in big name companies.

Or better yet read around here about some of the Internet-only manufacturers that sell direct for low prices online with warranty included. They are often an extremely good value. If you go his route your friends most likely will have never heard of your brand of speakers/amps/etc but your dollar will go far.
