USA Post Number: 536 Registered: Oct-06 | I was at xtreme audio yesterday in green bay and had a setup with a boston sub and a "radiator" He said it has the ability to get louder because the "radiator" gives the sub more cone area or somthing. If anyone knows about this let me know |

And there is no way to give a sub more cone area other than going to a larger sub. I hope you aren't thinking of letting that idiot mess with anything on your car....lol |
