Hey guys,

Just put in two Apline Type E 10's with a US Acoustics 450W amp... not spending too much money on sound now, saving for performance. Anyways, I'm currently running 150Wx2ch @ 4 ohms... but my amp can push 225Wx2ch @ 2ohms. It sounds alright now, but I know my speakers can handle more. Should I switch to 2 ohms? Whats is the difference and pro's & con's? Thanks!

Also, I have a sealed box now, but I listen to mostly rock, rap, and techno/dance. Should I make a ported one instead?
