They are awesome but they are very specific application and they do not behave in a way a typical subwoofer does. They work best when boundary loaded and you need a minimum of .8 cu ft, no less! They are very very tight and they need a lot a power.

here is my boundary loaded subwoofer enclosure. Notice from the pic's that the sub vents ato the very back of the cabin of the car. the subwoofer is also angled slightly so it will focus bass energy like horn loaded enclosure.

Inside the enclosure and amp rack its back lit with some small blue led lights to showcase the driver and the 900/5 JL amp.

This sub hit unbeliviebly hard and tight!! I wouldnt trade this sub for anything else! My ears are still hurting from this morning when I was fine tuning it.

Plus its totally stealth!! The only visable car audio upgrade inside my car is my head unit.
