Seald Sony
Did I Get Ripped Off..... I Nead Help Please!!!?
alright, i traded sony xplodes 1200w (i no they dont push that much probably like 200w) for some 400w rockford fosguates. they're not blown or anything n work just fine. did i get ripped off, and i know that i need like 1 - 2 cubic feet for each 12" sub for the box. this isnt that much, its that has plastic all around the front to protect the speakers, kinda like a truck box but it has holes on top that make it sound freakin awesome. should i get a completely seald but bigger box. heres what it looks like.

That box is actually a bandpass enclosure. The plastic in front is not to protect the subs but so you can see them. A bandpass enclosure is basically a sealed box and ported box. The front part is sealed and the rear is ported (the holes on top).
Bandpass enclosures are going to need to need a lot of time to design. Usually prefab bandpass will sound horrible but you said that it sounds good.
I recommend that you keep that box if it sounds good. If you do get another box make sure it is custom made for those subs. That will maximize the performance of your subs.
It all depends on what you thick of the sound whether you got ripped off or not. If you like it then you shouldn't worry about if you got ripped off or not.
Good Luck!!!
