I prefer the sound of a sealed box. Also free air set up limits power handling capability of the sub and I wanted to keep my JL 500/1 to power the subs. How do yours sound free air? What are you...

This was because he only put the LED bulbs on the driver's side so the brightness & color could be compared. Halogen bulbs turn on & off slower than LEDs.
