I hardly ever need to pull it out tho unless im hauling concrete or mulch etc. Bumps nice n hard too
That would scare me too much. Heard of and saw too many storage boxes that collect water. Plug in, and they will fill up. Plug out and there is still moisture. A good amp is too expensive for taking that chance.

They are crossfire 12s. $100. The boxes were $50 each by themselves. I have no use for them now. If you want the kicker amp I used for them, $150 for all of it.

Build your own box and find a 12" sub and it will rock

I've heard subs that hit harder. But they hold their own. Two 12s is better than one 10 most of the time. But I've seen a 10 out hit a 15. So it's all in how much you spend I guess. I had them tuned to hit pretty hard when I tuned the radio to do it with the sub settings. The amp also has a bass dial that comes with it to turn it up without changing your radio. Also, not sure if you have a factory hu, but when I changed my radio, they hit twice as hard.
