LFE out may be selectable between subwoofer, main, or both. If it's set to subwoofer, then the front speakers won't get any low frequencies sent to them.

Firstly, If it is an open air sub ( hole with mesh in the center of the magnet) no ports are required, and the box should be sealed on the inside with silicone sealant. If it is a closed air sub ( no hole in the magnet) you need a 50mm port about 120mm long Box size will be 13 inches x 13 inches x 13 inches.
The Sub-woofer provides nearly all the base for this particular setup.
On the back .......usually.......but somewhere .........you will have an adjustment
knob or switch.......usually a knob......... turn it up a lil' bit, until you achieve your desired sound settings..........
Also, go into the volume meno of your desktop (windows desktop)
and adjust the settings there....as well as any software your are using to listen to your media, since that will override the default/windows settings during playback.
Before we get too committed to a direction to go, or embark on unnecessary surgery, can we establish that we KNOW it's the speaker and not the amp or source? Perhaps you could swap it with the other one.
Back to basics: is this a sudden-onset problem or did it always behave like this? Try swapping locations with the other one. Bass response is a lot about location, location, location. Standing waves, self-cancellation, phasing. All players in this game.
Line outs Left and Right from mixer to power amp Left and Right inputs, Power amp outs to Subs(if they have passive crossovers built in check specs on subs). From Subs then to Main spkrs. Make sure power amp is set in stereo mode using this way.
Alternative: You will need at least a 2-way stereo crossover unit inline after mixer and before power amps if the subs don't have a built in passive crossover. Most of them do have passive crossovers in the subs these days. Then separate amps or one channel would drive the subs and the other the main speakers. True stereo would require at least a 2 way crossover and two stereo power amps if hooking them up this way.
There is another option as is common with many sub setups. Send the signal to the mains using L/R outputs from mixer and a separate Mono output to the subs only. Putting only bass/kick and low frequency outputs in this send would help too.
www.crutchfield.com has a "what fits" section, it will allow you to pick a new head unit that will fit the stock size of your SUV. As for as Amps, a Bass tube or Subs, they will help you too. They sell you have any thing you will need. Remember, this tip, grounding cables need to be drilled or bolted to a non-painted surface to the chassis.
i have the same subs. i am running a total 500/1. i would say not a good idea, just today i was listening to bass mechanic and i could smell the voice coils heating up. so probaly a 300-400 watt amp would be good. just make sure it is a true wattage amplifier. not a cheap amp. pioneer amps that walmart sells are actually good amps.
