[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8696411, member: 650438"] 1st you dont know what kind of specs your box is, you literally just bought a random *** box and paired it with your sub and expect it to sound good, thats the equivalent of buying lottery tickets with your retirement money. Chances of success = near zero. 2nd, the gain is not a volume knob, depending on your head unit (please list how your signal is setup, LOC? Head unit model?) half gain would be more than enough to blow your sub if your signal is weak. Vice versa if your signal is garbage, your amp will never output anywhere near proper power and your setup will sound like shit aka most likely culprit here is your signal is what i bet all my money on. 3rd. switching a sub out is not gonna get you louder. Box, signal and power is what gets you louder. If you cant get a 136 db out of that sub, you doing it wrong because thats how much my buddy does on a sealed box for his W3 on an alpine 5 channel. It should be close to 140s in a ported. [/QUOTE]
