Quoted from smassa:I love FF sound kits especially for the backbox but I still don't understand why more people don't go with an external powered sub. Easy to Install and transfer from game to game and without the annoying rattle that upgraded subs often cause.
Because it's two very different experiences.
The powered sub under the cabinet will provide more overall bass than an internal upgraded sub, which is great. But the internal upgraded sub from FF will provide way more feedback that you can feel through the cabinet than what you would get vs the powered sub on the floor.
That "annoying rattle" that you refer to is proof of this very point. And that's what anti rattle tape is for.
