[QUOTE="wew lad, post: 8641674, member: 665412"] 00 Silverado Ext cab. First of the nbs, similar to the 03-07 inside It's sub forward driver side port passenger. Not sure why I didn't think about it until now but I do remember setting it up so it'd be louder where I am than the pass side so I need to try metering it on the driver side although it's not legal it'll give me an idea of what I'd be at if I oriented it differently. The power is there and it isn't, I'm at the limits of the sub lol it's a 12k amp that does in fact do rated but it is not doing 12k after rise, voltage drop, and the limitation of the sub. I can certainly agree with that statement. I was mostly curious to see what I could do to get louder, not chase tenths and I'm getting a better idea thanks to the meter and your guy's insight. It'll really start to be interesting once I get more cone area. I'm still very happy with the output, it's arguably louder by ear than people doing low 150's with 2 15s and I mean, you do use your ears to determine loudness after all. But I can't "brag" if I don't meter loud although I don't really need to considering other people's systems honestly **** in loudness compared to this. [/QUOTE]
