I was riding along with a guy who has 2 15" Rockford Fosgate Punch woofers in a huge air-leakin-from-the-seams sealed box in a 93' Ford Escort wagon. (This kid bought my old amp, an mtx thunder 250x, great for coaxial speakers, 6x9's etc, but i didn't think he'd push subs on em) anyway, he had it set up so he played a song with a lot of high bass, and cranked his xover all the way up, cranked his gains near all the way up, and turned the bass boost 3/4 of the way up.. anyway, i skipped it to the next song, which had some low bass in it, and those things bottomed out so bad i couldn't help but laugh out loud... anyway, i was like hey man you should just get an 60hz high pass filter for these, so they won't bottom out (jokingly, i thought he'd just turn his amp down a little bit...) anyway, he got one, it's just funny how you sit there and listen to music and suddenly the bass drops out when it goes below 60 hz... maybe he'd be better off with a wall of 6x9's....
