    lol no you don't

    This is what a forum is for...you think you ask too much crap??? have you checked out the over 1000 post thread??

    I'd keep the Audiopipes and build a new ported enclosure for em

    well i started the design and everything on the box, i have all specs and everything, tryed the design in winisd, but i still dont understand how the # of ports affect the performance and sound of my enclosure, i read about the helmholtz resonance but still dont get the things about the ports and everything.

    There is a "rear port air velocity" graph..this tells you how fast the air is traveling in the port at what frequencies....if the air speed is too high there will be port noise. Which is unwanted.

    If a port is too small than there will prolly be port noise.

    what would be like a standard or normal air velocity??

    i just read your post about your speakers and amp issue.

    why would you have wanted them to be wired in mono?

    well i wanted the amp in mono, because when i putted it in mono it was a lot louder than when i putted it on stereo mode... but i putted them now in stereo and adjusted the settings on the preamp and it sounded a lot louder.

    i think this winter when it gets pretty cold out i'll totally disassemble the truck to re wire.

    maybe some 0 gauge.and a new grounding spot.maybe some sound deadning.she's rattling more and more these days.some panel clips are starting to break apart.

    ohh lol atleast you have a false floor to hide it....but anyways ill need to make another box to house the amps...i need to get a distribution block and move the fuse to the front next to the batt...but before i do all of these ill make a proted enclosure for the 2 subs

    I used to have a Profile Baja HA1000...it was a decent amp. It was a current hog though. I think it put out close to rated power...it pushed a couple 12 inch Type R's pretty good though...that amp got REALLY REALLY hot but it never shut down on me. I even had it wrapped in a small blanket and wedged between the back of my sub box and the back of the rear seats and it never shut down...even when it had NO air flow or anything...The blanket was so the amp would vibrate against the enclosure and F-up. Durable amp

    I have those same speakers too...sound pretty good but lack in the midbass department
