So would I, but I gotta say that the new Xsite line has impressed me quite a bit, so I'd have to put it between them as a good middle of the road set of products... better than Power Acoustiks, but not as good as Fusion.

Yeah, thats totally your problem. Those 15's can take more power than you are giving them, but in a decent (even prefab) box with 100 watts or so a 15 they would sound better than 500 a piece in that box. Not to lay it down hard or anything, but definately, you are not doing those subs any justice. In a proper box, with a good bit of power those subs will get plenty loud and have pretty decent SQ.

I agree with everyone else... ditch the box... it may look pretty, but looks don't mean squat when it comes to sound.
So it is definately a combination of not enough power (amp) and the wrong enclosure (box)... Save up a lil for a new amp to push them and if you have the tools and abilty, make a new box... if not, your other choices are to just go get a vented prefab box with more space or have someone make it for you... we've got a couple people right here like Ryan that can make you a killer enclosure.

im kinda in a similar predicament, i have currently one 15'' kicker cvr, soon to be two and am looking for a cheap amp that will provide enough power that will cost under 300, probably wired to 1 ohm as they are dual 2 ohm subs, so if you come across something that will give em enough bang for the buck at [email protected],

- buyin em off of a friend w/o the amp which is already sold, tryin to decide to buy a legacy (200rms x2 @2 ohm) for 45, or just save my money on a new amp

thanks, Chris

FYI, you can wire 2 dual 2 ohm subs for a 1 ohm final load. You will need something that does XXXX RMS at 2 or 4 ohm.
