What are your box dimensions??? What is it tuned to?? Port size?? Are the amps enough for the 4 subs power wise?? What's the RMS rating on both??

I have enouhg power the amps about 1200 rms each. And the subs are 400 to 500 watt each. But I have no idea abot the box because it was in the car befor i got it. The guy said that it was buit by mobile one

Were those subs the ones that the box was built for?? It's possible that they were swithced out and thee box is too big for them. Can you measure it out and let us know what come up with??

Yes I can measure it. And I know the box is built for the subs. How do I put a pic on here so I can show you.

The box is not 1 box for all 4 subs. It is divided for all 4 subs. Each box is 15 H x 20 D x 17 W and the port is not srait it bends. Its 1 inch wide and 18 inchs long then bends and then goes for 13.5 inches then bends again and goes for 2.25 inches.

your first problem is those sliver ports.  I would NEVER EVER do a 1"  port especially at 18" tall.  I know you bought it that way so its not your fault.  I wouldnt be surprised if that sounded like a Kazzoo....

Also can you flip the subs around?  It usually shouldnt matter too much but in your case with the subs behind your head i would rather have cone then magnet in that spot myself.  Hows your electrical?  You said have 4800 watts RMS, you need the electrical to back it.  Are you sure you have that much power?

edit: i re-read the first post.....i dont think 2 directd 1500d do that much power.......

Directed said that you can link them together and get about 5k out of them but maybe they are over rated. but they are not linked together. and they are 1200 rms. and the box is 15 h x 20 d x17 w

It really dosent sound like a kazoo. The subs are turnd around that was the first thing I don when I got the car. It does hit but not alot of presure. I wish I could put a video of it to show you
