Sure they are a good sub. The question is what are you doing about the box. Good sound is all about the box. Read the stickies about boxes and box design for more info.

You should be fine, but set your gains correctly. Do a search in this forum for "gain" if you don't know how.

That's my opinion. Take it, leave it, or correct me.

Then all you might need to do is change the porting on it.

Do you know what the box is tuned to or how long the ports are?
