how much do you charge for a regular ported box for two 12" circular subs, and how long would it take to make? I can get the dimensions on the box I have now if you really need them, but all I need is just a regular sized box.

Sql Style Box Or Just Plain Loud Or Just Sounds Great.

Well I would like it to be loud, but I dont want it to get distorted. My amp only pushes out 500wattsRMS, so as loud as possible.

The DMM didnt work :/ but what I did was I put on a song with really low bass, put up my volume to the level I listen to in the car all the time, and just kept lowering the gain until I didnt hear anymore distortion or clipping. Only thing is, its not as loud as it was before but im sure that will be fixed when I get my hands on a good ported box

How did you set it up and where did you have the probes?

Put it to AC Voltage, and hooked up the leads to the + and - on one of the amp's channels. It just wouldnt turn on

Batteries dead? It should read 0 or very close to 0 when it's not on anything.

idk but all I know is that I dont have any clipping anymore. Lowered the gain to about 12 o'clock, put the volume on 21, and no clipping. What I did to make up from the lack of bass from turnng down the gain was I put the fade to rear-2 (was on rear-0 originally), and put the bass up 2 instead of it being on zero. It's weird though idk if its bcuz I put the fade on 2, but my rear speakers dont even hit bass anymore. Not that I care cuz it doesnt matter to me, but I found it weird. It's almost as loud, but not quite there yet

haha dude she knows NOTHING about those things. She cant tell the amp apart from the subs and im not kidding. I asked her if I could use her credit card to purchase a ported box for my subs and she asked me why would I want my subwoofers to sit in a box. I think she thought it was a wooden box that I would actually put my subwoofers into and have them sit inside of it lol.
