[QUOTE="Immacomputer, post: 5080332, member: 570419"] It doesn't matter how well the subs model in your enclosure or that they fall within the manufacturer's specs. Neither of those know what you want out of your system and neither of them account for your car. You should stop blaming the subs for not doing what you want and start looking at ways to improve your enclosure design to better fit your listening needs. Start by taking what you feel is your favorite sub that you still own and try different alignments to see if you can get the sound just right. I can make a list of enclosures that I have made using the same sub and my descriptions can sound exactly like your list of subs. Some of my enclosures have been bottom heavy with not much top end, some have lacked in the bottom end but blended well, some haven't been efficient and some have. I now have one that is the loudest, plays the deepest, is the most efficient, and blends extremely well. The best part is that I'm usually only out about $20-40 to try something new instead of out $100+ every time I want something different. You can do what you want, but you should really take the enclosure design into consideration. [/QUOTE]
