a good ported box is better than a sealed box. the only downside to ported boxes is they have to be larger.

for simplicity sake that sub/box combo dragon linked would probably be the easiest way to go.

2 sundown e series or a single sundown sa series sub would be the way to go for the best quality and performance.


Thanks alot on the info. Any tips on how to tune amps correctly? im kinda new at car audio but not a total dumbass lol.

gain: set this to your head units pre-amp voltage. usually 2 or 4 volts
lpf: 80hz is the standard setting
subsonic: a few hz below whatever the boxes port is tuned to.
bass frequency: i'll be honest and just say i'm not sure how to set that. its a frequency based bass boost is all i know. burn a test tone cd and mess with this setting because i can't give you a very accurate setting for this. start it at like 40hz setting is about all i got.
bass boost: leave it at 0 unless you absolutely feel you need more bass. in which case bump it up a little at a time and listen for distortion.
