Alright, so when I bought the Rockford last week it was shot. Couldn't even take 400w. So I called the guy up, and got my money back. And I'm not sure if you guys remembr my old box, that sat on the ledge above my gas tank. But now I buld myself a new one. And here's an old pic, and some pics of the new box.
Let me know what you think!
Oh, and ten points to anyone who knows the symbol on the left of the new box.
hows she sound? did you do everything from scratch?
Wait, Is that a V6 or V8? 1990 Chevrolet C-K 1500 series 4.3L .. 5spd
1994 JDM Euno Roadster 1.8L 5spd Bolt Ons.. etc 2000 Camaro 3.8L Auto Bolt Ons..etc
I would probably port a 12. but i guess its too late for that. box is usually planned out for it or not lol.

Why? Ports are usually o make it louder. Trust me, NOT necessary. Plus its made for a P2, which wants 1.55 inner volume for a sealed box and 1.8 for ported. So if I started messing with that, the sizing of. The trunk really doesn't add up. But the main reason is that I listen to alot of heavy metal. A sealed box has a much sharper, cleaner sound. It sub reacts faster, and has a more 'punchy' sound to it.

You are right.. I just prefer the ported sound. For metal you have the right box it does sound more "punchy". Nice build!
In America's Hat!
1997 Camaro 30th 'vert... GT1 cam/C6 wheels/Flowmaster/HIDs/Viper 2 way alarm/Alpine audio mods up the wazoo
2005 Equinox LT... mostly stock daily/Thule snowsports roof system/sound + interior mods

Thanks :) But just because it's sealed doesn't mean it doesn't hit hard as ****. I was sitting next to my friends car, and it was shaking his seat, mirrors, and steering wheel... inside my car, it's like deafening.

Haha yeah! I had a sealed box but it wasn't the sound I was looking for, the ported box made a world of difference. It is so loud I almost don't enjoy it LOL

Yeah, I understand that now. My old box I could sit at 25 on my stereo all day. Now, I can't go much over 18 for evry long without a headache.
But the "ported" sound can be cancelled out by some technical amp tuning in a sealed box too. I maxeba tester song, and the new sub hits from about 32hz up to about 170hz.
RIGHT. I bought a Rockford Punch P2 the 6th. Last night coming home, the cone cracked. Guess what's not under warranty... it was under a cover in my trunk, with 400w in a sub that can handle 500w. Please someone tell me how the ****ing hell that's my fault?!?!?! It has "physical damage", NO **** SHERLOCK... and therefore voids the warranty?!?!?
