How much db might I hit with....

[M-Town 10+ year member]

I just bought 2 12edK.44 subs and a avionxx 800.2 amp. My box dims will be 14x30x17. Its going to be vented and tuned to 26hz. After displacement I'll have about 3.6 cubes. Anyone have a similar setup?..how many db do you think I might hit?

0-180 dB....the only thing that can tell you is the mic...

If I had to make a guestimate...I'd say mid 130's...

mid 130s if you are lucky.

140 maybe, but that box will be good for street bass, it will go very low.

all about the install and how much time your willing to put into it

Tuning: I was told to tune my box to 25-28 hz. Is this a wise number to choose?

thats seems a little low, but I guess thats about right, I have not had the chance to mess with those subs to much yet so i am not quite sure

25-28 is pretty low. you setup will be geared a lot more towards SQ.

yeah, check out my set-up.....tuned a higher and still BARELY got above 140....u'd prolly get near 140. i'd say high 130s, on a tight mic. peace
