i have put alot of time effort and money into my new system and the bass sounds like crap, i'm running a Hifonics Brutus BXI2008D and i tuned with a meter, 2 RE SE 10's the box is sealed and the chambers are as per their optimum. .65 cu ft. but it just sounds like crap. I'm lost?

Are you 110% positive you have the subs wired correctly?

Well I will punch it in winisd tomorrow and see what it shows given the box size you have now.

What are the settings on the amp? Where is the box in the vehicle?

.65 before sub displacement is what I come up with also.

It must be a setting on the amp or head unit.
