QUESTION:
is the JL 10IB4 and kicker cvr10 (free air subwoofers)?

My Situation:
i dropped a Polk audio db1040 in the rear deck
i pried the factory speaker off the metal spacer so i could elevate the speaker off the gas tank it worked perfect now but i previously had the speakers in a sealed box and when i say they hit HARD i mean 1 by itself sounded better then my boys 2 12" subs (i don't remember his brand)... but when i dropped the speaker into my car i don't even get a ounce of clean bass even with the bass turned all the way up or down.

i dont want to do anything crazy like porting the deck open to fit a small box in there to get some good sound... and free air subs are basically extinct. just trying to keep it a clean and simple installation but some good bass with my funk comes on...

is it because the sub is not sealed over the deck or is it because it's just not the subs purpose?

thanks in advance

The IB410 is designed to be an infinite baffle or free-air driver. The CVR is not.
