01' Yukon XL
Electrical: 2 C&D UPS12-475s, NO ALTERNATOR OR CHARGING SYSTEM
Wiring: Speaker wire: 4 runs of 12AWG in parallel
Battery wire: 16' of 3/0 (+) and 3' of 2/0 (-)
Amplifier: (1) Orion 2500D
Subwoofer: (1) Atomic APXX 18"
Box: 7 cubes, 2 6" ports tuned to 34Hz, double baffle and wall supports. (Thanks again Larson!)
Song/Tone: Tone generator on laptop, I forget peak, I just went up slowly and let it keep the highest score.
dB result: 144.7 at dash, shortly after 151.9 at one of the ports.
I was happy, I wired it up the night before, I threw all of this into the back of the vehicle in the morning.

Well I am sure up on the dash it will be a couple db's less. That is obvious. I havent finished sealing off the box entirely either. Im not one that has thousands of dollars to throw into a system at every corner. I have to work my *** off for everythingQuote:

There's a guy around here that competes in my shows with an Olds Cutless, four 15" T3 TSNS's and four of the MA Audio HK4000D's thats been doing 159-160. He was doing 57's last year when he had less power, pretty much like what you have.Quote:

Read the sig. But I've never been metered, yet...
