I have been thinking about taking them out and hooking them up in my truck and see what they sound like ... they have some nice looking 6.5's in them.. and they seem to liike more power then i want to push them with in the house... maybe take the 6.5's out and put in some kick pannels ... or in the kids car... if the sound very good

Thanks everyone..... it sounds good.... other then my boy says he can hear a high pitch whistle when the bass hits.. i feel a little air coming around one of the subs... when he listens he can hear it at both subs... ( i can't hear it.. i think to many years of loud music for me. and some of my bikes and quads are pretty loud. plus i am getting old 50.. ) i am thinking of going to the army surplus store, i seen they have some of that like tar rope.. kind of like what they use to give you when you would install a sun rofe in a car to seal out the water .. any other ideas of what to put around the back of the sub to seal it ? i am pretty sure the rest of the box is sealed good.. this is the first sealed box i have every built..
