Got these in about a week ago. Upon delivery, one sub was fine, the other had a coil that was frozen. Andrew from Adire replied to me message immediately and replaced the sub. Excellent customer service. Subs are dual 4 and will be powered by 1200 watts. First test enclosure will be sealed which will be roughly 2.59 gross. Snapped a few photos of one of the subs. Will start in enclosure within a couple days. Lots going on this weekend

Someone's happy about his new subs.
To me sub's sitting without a box is like a dog looking at you with his leash in his mouth.
So hurry up and get it built so we can see the final product

The brahma subs seem to be absolutely excellent woofers, I'm interested to see how you like these.

I will definitely give my input

If you wanna do a t-line, the Brahma might actually do alright. I did a tower for home audio t-line for brahmas at 28-29 hz. Any woofers with high xmax and relatively low Q values and maybe high Rms (suspension, not wattage) or low CMS, and a low Fs, are what you'd want for t-lines.

I'm not in love with that frame but I'd expect great performance if Dan Wiggins designs are being used.

Same. I’m not a fan of that frame as well but, we shall soon see if it holds up to Adire’s reputation

Keep in mind if you split that air up it will raise the resonance some.

Dude, I put a flush mount baffle on upside down once when I was younger, for a 4 15's box that was like 15-16 cubes LOL. The flush mount wound up inside of the box basically. Oops! Idc, even the best of builders make mistakes, just gotta go with the flow. That'll give you probably about .08 cubes or so of extra airspace with those extra 2 sub holes.
