[QUOTE="theaznj, post: 2575831, member: 570360"] So i've had my third destroyer sub for while now from being fixed and when i put it in my new box(4.0 cu ft @ 33hz) i thought at first that something was wrong with the sub, so being as impatient as i am and jumping to conclusions thinking that i was having some more bad luck with the destroyer, i bought a 15" fully loaded BTL from grneyedvl last night. I pulled the destroyer out and checked out everything and everything seemed ok, i put it back in and really listened to it with the box somewhat out of the car and found the source of the problem was the box i just made was leaking when too much pressure was being built up inside. Thats what i get for rushing the box i guess:crap: . So i would like to get some feedback from you all. what would be the most ideal/loudest setup for me with the equipment i have now? I have orion 2500D for power and 200amp alt, xtra yellowtop batt for electrical. Should i -get another btl(only problem is the one i got has special inner core heatsink that supposedly isn't an option on btl's yet) and have the subs little underpowered - build a new box(possibly bigger, up to 8 cu ft) that would house the btl or the destroyer alone - go with another sub(s) all together. the subs i have are both dual 1's i'm trying to spend as little as possible to get my setup the way i want it and make use of what i have so far. i know the btl is a pretty capable sub and can handle lots of power but will a bigger box make it that much louder, i would most likely drop it down to .5 ohms instead of running at 2ohms if i use it. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
