Got a reply from David when I asked him about his setup compared to mine:
"Well, about the flex, I'm not really sure what your doing wrong. Your electrical seems pretty stout, so that shouldn't be the issue. One thing that sticks out is that I was running about 1K more than you, with strapped 2200's. Those Ethos can handle some juice, so give it to them. Also, maybe try raising the tuning to about 34hz and see what happens. I bet you pick up a 1-2 db's, just by doing that. Those Ethos will still dig down to 25-26hz tuned to 34hz. Set you sub at 26hz and call it good. I seriously doubt you will bottom the driver out, not with 5 spider packs on them. They are stiff as hell. Also, my box was built to 1.5c/ft @ 32hz. Other than that, those are the only differences I'm seeing. I know the Ethos like smaller boxes. I've heard 2 cubes is the absolute MAX you want to go with the Ethos before you start losing performance. Maybe that the issue?"
