Bronze Member Username: Liljohn88Post Number: 32 Registered: Nov-05 | i have 2 15" kicker comp 250rms 500max i was thinking about building a ported box for one of them or maybe both, i want it to get alot louder than it is now and i was wondering if anybody thinks its a good idea, because my brother bought a jl audio 13W1 and i thought W1's were crap and he built a ported box for it and it was loud as hell and i dont understand why |
