I mean like i had ran 300 watts and it sounds the same but i have a different sub would it be louder if i had a better sub or bigger sub like 15 or 18

they say it will sound the same from 500 watts to 1k to the human ear but to a term lab you will see it...... so yes it is louder but unnoticeable to you

how can i make it where its heard for a block or two because my budy has 900 watts to a memphis m3 and it pounds super hard.

Get 300 more watts.

Your ported truck box isnt helping probably.

Your not going to be impressed or notice a difference unless if you get a bigger system.

I am running 500 watts to a 12 and mine is loud for what it is. Loose the sub and the box, start over.

rick heffron of tml does a 146 off with one 12 on 500 watts.

depends on setup with the whole 500-1k watts...

but as per the op... get a better box... get a better sub... and why the hell do you want to be heard blocks away? make it easier for the ghetto rats to steal it?
