Yeah, the stereo guy just wanted you to buy his crap, and was rather assy about it. Kenwoods aren't much good at anything besides being inexpensive and barely decent for home audio. There are a lot of other better brands, but it all depends on your budget.

If you like the way it sounds, then leave it. A properly made and tuned box can make a world of difference though. Even for the kenwoods.

Um, its saturday and most people in AHQ have a life.
Kenwoods are probably the worst kind of subwoofer you can buy. I would take a set of Sony explodes over kenwood.
The kenwood amp is ok, Kenwood focuses more on keeping the THQ low at moderate ohms but you wont see 1000 watts unless you are rolling at 1ohm and you are probably looking at 1% THQ at 1ohm (this isnt good, but isnt hte worst)

Even though we deal Kenwood, we only do because some still ask for it by name (mainly headunits though). All experience I have had with their subs could be classed with "all the rest". Never performed better than any other run of the mill subs but no one ever had any complaints after the install either. If they sound good to you, run with it. As far as custom box, I don't know if I would spend the extra money on someone else doing it just for the Kenwoods. Prefab boxes with the correct air volume will be adequate and save you about $150. If you are stepping up into a JL or some other comp. type subs, then the custom box $$'s will be worth it...
