[QUOTE="tcguy85, post: 3605259, member: 574289"] well as some of you guys know i wanted to try a new sub. i went with the Dayton Reference HO ten. it's in a .85 cubic foot gross about .72-.78 net enclosure tuned to around 28-30 hz. i used the 3" port tubing from parts express with their flares and right angles. this setup is getting around 400 watts rms from my kicker ZX750.1. i went from the Treo SSi to this. it's getting half the power but since the sensitivity is higher it sounds almost as loud. i wasn't looking for pure output. i was more concerned with SQ and this setup has just the sound i was looking for. it's got a much tighter harder hitting sound. it doesn't have the huge hump in the bottom end like the Treo had. it has a more flat sound for sure. it's not "beating your chest in" loud but it does hit very very nicely on double bass and the bass guitar sounds way more accurate and clear. i know i need to clean up my wiring and i'm going to do the port a lil differently but this is it for the most part. it was cold and i didn't feel like sitting outside trying to route my wires neater. the next warmer day i have it will get fixed. it was about 20 degrees and i was already crazy enough for taking my old 60 pound box out and remounting amps when it's this cold. anyway on with the pics....

[IMG]http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n159/cavalier94sq/IMG_1817.jpg[/IMG] much neater but this will look just as neat when i get time to clean it all up. [/QUOTE]
