It would probably be better to get some speakers that are 20w rms.

 

Would they sound good at high levels cause the sub i have only is good at high levels haha. Also is there a way to turn the bass on the speakers down without lowering the bass on the sub because when i turn the bass on the stereo down the speakers and the sub get less bass and i want the sub to have more bass. Thanks and what does the x-over do is that better for higher or lower?

 

Yeah they should be good at high levels but not much room for future upgrades if you get 20w speakers.You should be able to adjust the amp powering the sub so it's louder at lower volumes unless it's low wattage.

 

250 watts i have bass boost all the way up and something else but whats is x-over mean?

 

It could be a high/low pass filter.low pass would be for the sub and high pass would be for regular speakers.

 

Read the edit.

 

There all good choices of boxes,The band pass will be the loudest of all but the lowest sound quality.But the ported/sealed one is pretty cool and will show you the difference in the SQ and loudness that sealed/ported offer.I would probably go for the sealed/ported for the versatility.

 

i would take the ported, but not bandpass... Bandpass will just be loud noise, not quality in the bass it drives out. sealed will have the best quality, but need lots of power to make it loud, and ported or vented, is in between, not the most quality bass, but not just loud bass coming out. ported IMO is best for a car with a trunk.
