I hope Meade got his posted, here's mine

perhaps he's trying for "tard of the month" and if so he gets my vote. Crappy vids and NO idea how to use the English language...

And why the hell would you tune to 15Hz in a car? HT yes, car no....

 
uhh..
that sub isn't exactly designed for that...it's designed for IB..in a home..or..IB sq setup in a car..

Not a big ported box in a car...with a bunch of power...
which is why I am obsessed with making vids even though the system isnt ready yet and the camera sucks... cuz over the years I have listened to bullshit like this thread over and over, and now I have done it, and I am right. Unfortunately I can't prove it with the camera, I'll have to TL/mic it when I get the kinks out.

Fact is, you are wrong. I know what the sub was designed for. that doesn't matter. It does what I expected. It does what I wanted it to.

It has a normal 3" voicecoil. The only reason it's not rated for that power is because it is tested free air. I have emails from Scott himself, not that I needed them. I know better than to think a "free air sub" can't handle power though it has the same parts as other woofers very much like it. It doesn't have a magical "free air" cone on it.

 
why use an IB sub in a ported box? If anything, build a sealed off wall in the car and use the back half of your Aztec as the IB.
true infinite baffle requires a minimum of 10 times Vas on each side of the driver. The IB3 18's Vas is 13.7 cubes. I would need a minimum of 137 cubic feet on each side of the driver for it not to "see" the enclosure.
