MO, didn't you just buy a JL 10W7 in an HO box? Do you just like throwing money out the window?

I went ahead and ordered my avalanche 15 thru the phone with chad the owner of the company and he is a real cool guy. answered all my questions and overall real happy with the service so far. Just deciding what kinda box i wanna go with running it off a 500/1 going in to a camry trunk? I listen to mostly rap and drum n bass and jungle and some rock.

I have 1-15 avalanche running with a PPI a600, soon to be a HCCA 250g4 as soon as I find the damn time to install it lol! I am running mine in a sealed 2.5cu/ft and the SQL is very nice! I actually demoed it out today to my buddy who is a big time DJ, He asked before getting into my truck what I had, I said 1-15 he said ohh I wont like it I run 4-10's. I said just get in and check it out, he left amazed!:-) He said the Punch for a 15 was amazing and the deep low end was nuts, I love it when that happens:-)

I dont know MO I preffer sealed, what do you like? I ws thinking about building a ported box tuned to about 25htz for fun to see the diff but in 2.5 sealed it can get too loud for me sometimes.

I rather have it accurate and hear the SQ while being loud like yours. What amp are you using james?? So 2.5 sealed.. also what kinda car do you have it in?

u can have great sq in a ported box if u build it right. its just easier to build a sealed box than a ported so people naturally assume the sq is that much higher

Alpine is right but even if the box is built right if it is tuned high you lose out on SQ it has to be tuned low to have better SQ then sealed. I am running it with my PPI a600.2 but I am taking that out and putting in an Orion 250HCCA this weekend.
