You got it.

So a little update... system still in my van... subs still tight, gains all the way down, boost all off, and I burped this:

N130Gv2's 92 Grand Marquis build log-img_2270.jpg

145.6 @ 45hz

Not too bad.... They're craving more power, but I'm still taking it easy on them till they loosen up some more. They sound GREAT!!! Even with my 40hz tuning.

The vid...

Your ports are slllliiiightly extended with your box the way it is. You'll have more accurate tuning when you port forward.

Around 2K... Its rated at 2400rms @ 4ohms (2600+ from factory bench test) if I can stay around 14.4v. I need a real amp thats rated into 12V and puts out A LOT more power.

No worries bro... more power will be here sometime this year.

N130Gv2's 92 Grand Marquis build log-img_2271.jpg

Then after about a half hour of playing around with seating, frequencies and tuning.....:

N130Gv2's 92 Grand Marquis build log-img_2273.jpg

Less than 3.5 db's to 150, lol... 146.59 @ 47hz

Thanks man, this is still my original box. Once I start my frankenclosure, things will change. Hopefully for the better.

I seem to have found the setting where if I turn it up anymore, I lose, so not sure whats going on there. Maybe too much draw and not enough supply...

I'm happy with the gain. I know there's still a lot more gains, I just need to find them. I learned a lot about seating/positioning, and different settings today, so it was a good day.

146.5 @ 47hz doesn't seem bad for a crappy tire battery, and less than 2K, in the back of a minivan....
