All of their subs will work in a ported or sealed enclosure.  We used three of the comp line subs in a sealed single chamber and they performed flawlessly.  Lots of bracing and a little poly fill.  It was in a single cab mitsubishi truck, we were barely able to make them fit.  I thought we were gonna shatter the back window, it had to move an inch when the speakers were at full excursion. 

Since then they have been stolen.  He thought it was a good idea to pull in to work everyday running it at full tilt.  I guess the thieves thought that was a good idea too.  Made him an easy target.  They ripped out his seats and took everything but the components.  Huge holes where we had it bolted through the floor and the bed.  Damn Thieves!

I sent him a pm, to see what he is talking about.  I don't see how we were both wrong either but I'll listen to what he has to say.

I have tried to keep the post to the topic at hand, but will apologize to the original post'r.  Hope we got at least a lil usefull info out there.  This is real world experience with the brand, not guessing, or myths.

sounds like they ant to bad of subs. but thats a sad story its prity bad that even after you did so much work to keep them from geting ripped off. i had a way that seemed to work well to keep people from geting my stuff in an old car i had. i ran the bolts all the way down threw the frame. inside the box i had a 1/2 inch thick chunk of steel that ran the fun langth of the box and 8" wide. i also screwed the subs in from the inside of the box since it was a home made box. the amp was behind the box bolted to the floor also and there was no way to get you hands around the box to even try and get the amp.

I got the subs for twenty bucks a piece, and the components for the same price.  Pretty good deal retail was like 99 or so for the subs and 300 for the components.  The amps i got two for 350 total, they retail around 500 each I think.

the myth part was about the gain control. im sure you know that but just to clear it up with every one reading this thread. so the best anser this guy got out of this was your anser.

Yeah I didn't have them through the frame, but was using large washers.  I don't know how they got them out, maybe a chain and a pick up truck.  No alarm on the car, wanted to wait till he had enough money and wanted subs first.  Oh well, you live and you learn
