RE: 18" subwoofers - unique bass issue

Here's my suggestion to you. Forget those 18"s. Buy a pair of the 15" Pyle Pro passive subs sold by Parts Express. Remove the internal low pass crossovers in the subs and wire the terminals directly to drivers. The internal crossovers suck and hold these subs back. Seal the 1\4" phone jack hole from inside the terminal cup to prevent air leakage. Quick drying household silicone caulk should work fine. Drive the subs directly with one of the amps. The upside is the Pyle subs can take physical abuse, and are lightweight and compact enough to be moved and transported with ease.
