After spending a week building the box and putting everything together ive come up with an issue
These dayton ho 10s bottom out incredibly easily
Low notes where box programs predict the most excursion arent a problem. Its the pulse notes like a kick drum that bottoms them out or higher frequencies.
Box is 1.4 at 34hz it was at 30hz but the problem was worse
Amp is a dd d5.1500 so 1500w at 1ohm to the 2 10s. Crossovers are 64hz lowpass 24db and 30hz subsonic at 12db. No bass boost or eq.
Only thing i thought was questionable when i build the box was the 4inch aero for 2 10s but thats almost 9in² per cube of port area which is normal imo. Port terminates at pretty much the exact middle of the box and side fires at driverside rear door.
Other than buying high excursion subs i dont see a way of fixing this issue.
I figured 2 10inch ho would be louder than 2 dd 506 but it doesnt seem possible without bottomimg the subs out. Which is crasy because both subs supposed have very similar x max capabilities.
