Have you tried moving the box around?
Facing the woofer towards a different location?

40 at 24 for sq purposes yes, for daily driving maybe 50-60 at 24. 40hz at 12db/octave makes sense to me

If you crossed it at 80hz it would hit the same lows - you would just get more range out of it.

As for what's messed - it appears that would be crossing over at the F3 point or darn close to it. Why bother even having it [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img] Now I'm talking for an everyday street system here - not a hardcore SQ car. Again - just offering an opinion that wasn't asked for [img]tongue.gif[/img]

for sq the lower point higher slope works well, like you said, or was it me, for street purposes a higher point would be more suitable

I would like to get feedback from d-50truck on this since I do not think it is an X-over issue. The sound he is kind of describing is a-musical and indicates something very wrong (bad xover adds emphasis where you don’t want it or just mechanically rolls off). It really sounds like something electrical or mechanical is the issue.
Have you tried running a single coil at a time?
Is the amp dicking up?
Is the box properly sealed?
Is there a car/woofer box resonance issue?
I suppose it could be a faulty woofer but I doubt it
