[QUOTE="generalGOTCHA, post: 2652699, member: 557157"] Ok , I have decided to build a 2 cubic ft box for both of my Orion P series, because they seem to be taking my HCCA 250 far to well in a sealed box. It's like their not as loud as I had expected and so it was suggested to me here to built a box for them and tune the pair to around 32hz. I only listen to rap, and thus said heres some food for the thought. RMS of each subwoofer is 500WRMS, so 1000Wrms for the pair bridged. the HCCA 250 puts out 800WRMS @ 12volts . So around 14volts I assume about 900Wrms. Still less than what they say they can continuously handle. I have read threads where Orion H2's in a sealed box could handle 2000Wrms sealed, but I believe only 1500WRMS ported. So I take from this if the manufacturers reccomended ported box is set to 50hz for my 10" P series Orions, they should be able to take 500WRMS each @ 50hz. Now thus said, WHEN the box is finished that I am currently building for them at 32Hz .. Will the power handling be much less ? Causing the 800WRMS output of my HCCA 250 to now be around perfect range of output to the subs ??? I know its ball park estimating.. the general point is will the RMS Decrease since I am going below the 50Hz manufacturers specs to 32hz ? [/QUOTE]
