New member Username: Messiah88Post Number: 4 Registered: Sep-05 | I have just installed a new sub into my truck and it doesn't seem to be hitting as hard as my last configuration. Before I had 2 12w3v2's and a 500/1 amp and it hit very hard. Now I just got 1 new 10w6v2 becuase 1 of my 12's stopped working and none of the audio stores were open tonight so I went to walmart and got one of there sealed boxes and the sub hits clean but not nearly as hard as the 2 12's Now my question is first is the box having alot to do with how well the sub is performing. (what I think it might be). Second what would be the best box for that particular sub. and third will this new sub ever hit as hard or harder than my previous setup. Oh and one last question what db rating can a 10w6v2 hit with my 500/1 amp. (questimate) thanks and sorry for all the questions |

New member Username: Messiah88Post Number: 5 Registered: Sep-05 | I thought that i read somewhere that the 10 w6 can perform just as well as those 2 subs. The box is my main concern should I look into getting a better made box |

Silver Member Username: Southern_bassParis, Tennessee U.S. Post Number: 875 Registered: Dec-05 | chrisco if you really want heart stopping bass get a 12'' mt |
Silver Member Username: Southern_bassParis, Tennessee U.S. Post Number: 876 Registered: Dec-05 | plenty of other choices but mt's will get crazy loud |
New member Username: Messiah88Post Number: 8 Registered: Sep-05 | would my best bet be to go with a ported box or get another 10 inch sub or both oh by the way thanks for all the answers |

Silver Member Username: UcfsaxmanOviedo/orlando, Fl Post Number: 534 Registered: May-05 | you should get another 10 and get a better box either ported or sealed that will be louder. and should be close to your 12's from before in spl and the 2 10's will sound very good. |
