I can imagine the box will be ENORMOUS. Doesnt PE give recommended enclosure sizes?

Ya they do but it seems odd to me. For car audio applications they recommend 4 cubes 22hz tuning....

I currently have 2 of them in my house on an iNuke6000 and its just too much to be completely honest LOL. They are in 7 cubes a piece with 20hz tuning in the house.

Figured i would put one in the winter beater (1999 GMC Sonoma Extended cab)

I have 2 15's (though sealed) on a Crown X4000, and yes they are intense for HT.

Right on!

Dayton Ultimax 15s?

Also nice amp, I wish I had a Crown. Nice step up from the Behringer.

Yep Ultimax 15's. The Crown is nuts, class A/B and is easily 50lbs, the transformer inside is possibly the same size as my entire JBL GTX500 car amp. If I crank it up too loud the the lights in the house dim and pops the breaker //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Sounds all too familiar even with this class D Behringer 6000 LOL. Im about to put a 200amp panel in and run a dedicated outlet to the amp.

Have you done the big 3 on the house yet lmao...

 

[bigblank69 10+ year member]

Lol, I probably should.. If I ever maxed the volume out my wiring would certainly catch fire. I don't think I can get an electrician to come out to my house to run bigger circuits and 2 gauge wiring to my outlets //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

On top of the crown I have an Emotiva XPA-2 (300x2@8 ohm and 500x2@4ohm) and a XPA-5 (200x5@8ohms and 300x5@4ohms) powering my main speakers.

And the Crown is 1350x2@4ohms so If I cranked it I would have 4300Watts going in my living room followed by a fire department visit.

I have a Marantz 7702 Pre/Pro, nice thing about it is I can run XLR cables to the amps for less noise.
