That suggestion is a good one hambone...I thought about it, but I ended up just going with a smaller MTX 202 amp and a RT10 sub. The price was only about $20 more than I paid for the powered Bazooka. I feel much more comfortable with this set up, and at the price I paid for the amp, I can get another and do the same as you. For now, I'll toy around with it like this.
MP3...what about box shapes...the guy at circuit city swears that I should have more of a cube shapped box than anything. The box I have the sub in now is just a sealed type just under a cubic foot, and is shapped more like a truck box than anything. I was always under the impression that volumn was more important than shape. Help me here!? Also, in the PR5 I have the sub box mounted against the rear seats, facing up/slightly angled rearward in other words, I have the truck style box laying on its back facing up...is that where I need to be? Building a new box is not a problem, if I do it though, I want to do it right. The speaker is rated at 200 watts RMS, and the amp is running bridged into 4 ohms at manufactors rating of 140 watts at 12.5 volts.
Thanks for any suggestions.
