I have a bandpass box with the ports located behind the wall that the subs are mounted too. This box is for 2 12's. I cant get the plexiglass to stop rattling. It even rattles when the bass isnt blasting. I have tried putting weatherstripping behind it and no results. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Sounds like a poorly made enclosure. Did you buy this thing? Take it back. If you want to fix it, is the plexi screwed in place? You may need more screws. You may need to use silicone rubber cement (or similar) to seal the plexi panel in place.

Yep. And just because it says "MTX" does not mean it IS "MTX." Lots of counterfeit junk out there these days and logos, brand names, etc. are easy to have printed. Always buy from authorized dealers!

g-man, relax. If you read the whole thread you will see he got some good advice. Then he said the magic words, "flea market." Anyone who buys electronic equipment of any kind at flea markets and expects it to be genuine, quality gear is fooling themselves. This was being pointed out.

alrighty then if you get something cheap your education is below standard by 12volt.com standards.... is it necessary to insult others intelligence to offer help? or is fair game once help has been offered... whatever it is Im relaxed no worries here just go back to being ignorant
