which of these gives out the best bass? bass that you can actually hear once you step out of the car. i have two gnx124's in a sealed box and they dont HIT! (that hard) will putting them in tubes work better? ive been told that tubes make your subs sound loud and deep as hell and are better for suv's. im running both with a rockford 351m amp. or will bringing two more into the mix and another 351m amp really help the impact of the bass?

HELP!

    first of all what are the specs of the sub box that uare using and which way is it facing in the car and sepcs needed type of material power of amp tell me all this and i will guide you.


    sealed- good punch,sound,easy to build, small sizes, lots of tricks


    ported- + 3db gain at tuned hz boomy not as much punch good for dance rave techno and hard to build

    bamdpass- really effecent hard to here distortion not much punch very hard to build and construction error's very pronouced
