actually the reason most speakers sound like shit is because people mismatch subs to boxes or build their own without realizing what is required to make a speaker play to it’s best ability. ---

He wondered why it wasn’t as loud as his 10" sub he had in there before. Here the spec sheet said he needed like 2.5 cu^3 for the 15" sub. We built him another box and everything was all good. ---

> [@slowcamaro](#): > > stock radios sound the best…but i did love my mb quarts though stock = shit The only decent sounding stock radios are the BOSE in the Maxima and my buddy’s Lexus LX470 (it had a Nakamichi or Macintosh i believe). Now, a good head unit, a good component set and a set of good 6x9’s in the back running off a decent 4 channel amp, and a well powered set of 10’s = the win. Ive heard several MB Quart component sets, they did sound nice. I like my Phoenix-Gold Zeropoints also. ---

> [@Darkstar](#): > > people taking the cheap/DIY way out usually = crap. if the person is uneducated… like slomaro suggesting that OEM radios are better than aftermarket 😉 but yeah… i bought two JL’s from the early 80’s at the perry flea market for 30 bucks about 4 years and 2 amps and 4 boxes ago… just recently killed one sub… box materials cost about 50 - 80 bucks depending on quality of wood and products used… so yeah… i was cheap because i knew it could be done cheap… it’s all about what you’re purchasing… cone materials and magnets are really the only important thing… ---
