You and me both

I have a Kenwood KAC-5204 amp that I got for cheap so I ran with it.

Once wired up I'll be pushing about 75w to each speaker @ 4Ω. That should be plenty of bass for my needs, but if not I may have to look into getting a better amp.

Uh, yea, I retract my previous statement about needing a bigger amp. It's WAY more than enough! This box hits SO HARD. WOW. I think I have the settings on +1 and it is like I have a 10" sub or bigger in there.

Holy smokes I'm impressed with these tiny little bastards

Better picture:

I told you'd be impressed with the output! Congratulations! FYI... Make sure you don't have any water leaking into your trunk. That's what destroyed my dual vented enclosure.

Try what?

I ended up just using a bolt through the end of the box and some ring terminals to connect them to minimize the air loss from a bigger hole I'd have to cut out for a spring terminal or a binding post type terminal. That and it was CHEAP

Wow those are nice. Almost exactly what I did, but a much easier/better connection I guess I'll have to order some and re-do it.
