Thanks for the replies guys, you've been helpful. I guess i'm plannin on 2 upgrades to get the sound i want, being a better amp to stop underpowering the subs, and a box that is better suited for the job.

Enclosures suck. Running the sub free-air on your back seat is the way to go. Less weight, and you get to see the magnet as well as the cone...
