Hey sup everyone i got 2 12 Xlopds, and a 500watt xplod amp, and i have 2 ported encloser's both have one each mid and high range speaker on the box itself but when i turn up the sound instead of getting the loud ground shakeing bass i wount i get bass that rattles my truck but you can't hear it from a distance and you can hear it with the windows rolled up but it's not loud i have a fact. tape deck and the amp is hooked up with RCA adapter box i have a 97 s10 and both subs are behind the seat and im wonder if it could be. The size of the encloser's?, Because i don't have after market deck? because i didn't wire something up right?
i installed everything myself and i have tryed playing around with the frequnice's and high and low pass filter's but i can't get the sound im looking for i wount the sound that you can feel the subs hitting if you are standing near the truck like the vibrations and everything. If anyone can give me some info plz help cuz i know how to install build box's everything but this just seems to pass right over my head on what to do so info is very much apriceated.

how loud do you expect sony's to be :-x? For "ground breaking bass" you may want to try some new subs.

You have to be joking right. Your friend has a 2 watt amp, and you think sony's are capable of "ground shaking bass". I'm not gonna knock you. If they sound good, but not a lot of bass, that's all your gonna get. Honestly. If your happy with the sq of the sony's, then more power to ya. By the way, you have the worst english I have ever heard. It took me about 5 minutes to read your posts because they are so confusing. please type slower or something.

not only is it a run on sentence but it is uncomprehendable. I tryed to read it twice and all I got out of it was that he thinks sony's will give him e arth shaking bass and his friend has a 2 watt amp that sounds good.

yea, well, sony isnt exactly known in the car audio world for producing how do we put this...i a reliable top quality product. There amps are highly over rated as well as there subs. If you push anywhere over the RMS power for more then like 2 seconds the subs just gonna die.

Sony makes some desent products in other aspects of electronics, as far as car audio goes...its like the buying a daewoo...

What model are you talkin about, cuz I was lookin into buying some sony's but everyone talked me out of it. One thing that alot of poeple emphasize about them is that it is critical to build a box to exact spec in order for them to perform properly. Also consider that your head unit may not be cut out for something like this. Im not really sure if I agree with everyone when they say sony subs are garbage, but Id have to say the amps are.
