[QUOTE="bigbang, post: 2955997, member: 576408"] Hey, thanks for everyones feedback. Let me clarify myself a little more. I am running are two pioneer premier TSW 3004 SPL's off of two MTX 1501D's. What I'm still not getting is this. A single woofer in a three cubic foot box has a lower cutoff than if it was in a 1 1/2 cub box. I found this out and I love the extended bottom end. but if I put two woofers in a 3 cub box, without a divider in the middle, both sharing the same airspace, is the cutoff frequency going to go up as if each woofer was playing in only 1 1/2 feet of air? For instance, if I had 10 woofers in a ten cubic foot sealed box, no dividers, is the system going to play super low because there is so much air volume in the box, or is each of the woofers going to play as if it only had a cubic foot of air apiece. If I had alot of room, I might try a very large ported box, but I am limeted in the area of a 3 cubic foot gross box. I am not concerned about over excursion or loudness.
