nah is not portedJezek Is Back said:is it a ported box?
pics would help, and a better description
I would need to know what kind of sub and amp you have. Also what deck you have and your size of hot wire, ground and speaker wire.
alrigh i have a 700 watt alpine amp.....1000watt 10" MTX sub....i have a sony Xplod deck cdx-L510x 50wx4.....the hotwire is pretty long and i think is supposed to hold 200 watts
By size of wire I mean what guage of wire is it. Another thing is 10" subs hit high bass and not so much low or deep bass. Is the MTX sub a 9500 series? Now the most important thing with a system is your box. The box will make a world of difference. You need to check your paperwork on your sub and see what the recommened air space for a sub enclosure is. I build allways build my own boxes. Boxes bought from a manufacturer is not made for your sub, they are just made for looks or money. Your MTX book shoud tell you the dimensions of a sealed box and a jetted or ported box. It will also tell you the cubic feet of air space it needs if you want to build a custom box that isn't a perfect square. By my guess is it is your box. I guarentee with the recommened box dimensions and air space it will make a huge difference. Hope this helps let me know.
o alright thanx a lot for the help...ill keep yall updated
yeah, it sounds like the box to me. I agree with bolistic, you should build your own box. The recommended cubic footage for your sub is readily available online if you have the product number.
