thanx, u think 300wrms amp is good for this sub?i know im not pushing it to limit, but is it decent?i know ppl push 500wrms with these subs, and is it better to get the terminal(those connector behind the box), or just drill hole on box and connect the amp wires to sub directly?[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

and is it recommend to use banana plug for the sub? or just tighten the wire is good enough?[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

If you don't have speaker terminal it'll be impossible to make it air tight unless...

- you have inverted configuration..
- you have ported box and running wire through your port. (I never seen anyone doing this...)

it might sound cheese, but cant i use something to stuffed the hole, than put tape on and than cover it with carpet to make it air tight?

Well I never built a box by myself before... but I know this... If you are making sealed box it has to be sealed VERY GOOD.

Decent speaker termial costs only few more bucks than a roll of duct tape so I would go with speaker terminal.
