subs not as loud as they should be

Sounds like you may have one sub out of phase with the other.  Check your wiring.Support the12volt.com

i thought the same thing too until i read where he said they are barely moving. do you still think it could be they are out of phase?

no, i took them straight from my old car and they worked perfectly then. the pos is on the pos and the neg is on the neg

he means the way they are wired together in the box. not how they are hooked to the amp

yes, in the box they are fine and to the amp they are fine.

Then either your speakers are blown or the amp is blown - or perhaps just set up incorrectly.  How is your LP filter set and did you set the gain correctly?Support the12volt.com
