i'm actually surprised with the lack of kick that it is playing from drum/beat music...I turn off the sub and my mids are doing their best but the fill just isn't their which i though a little funny for a sealed application

edit:did i mention its taking lots-o-power to get it to move as much as it is (not a whole lot still IMO)? Based on my DMM its getting just around 650w RMS...

So When Did The Wheel Become Not So Good Round, Where Is This Really Going, Do We Think That Large Million Dollar Companies With Many Engineers On Board Can Send Us Some Pretty Cool Stuff. To Be Honest If We All Want Great Stuff Then Spend More Money Quite Shopping At The Fea Market. I Say You Get What You Pay For.

To be honest over the course of tring to do this I kind of agree, more so I think its the price an end user has to paid, but totally understand your point and agree for the most part.
