So my box is getting there. Double layered on each side with 3/4 mdf(it was free and yes I prefer birch ply) but box will be 14.5 tuned to 27 with two 8” areos. Also will have 6 2” rods top to bottom for bracing and 8 1 1/2” dowels front to back. Would glassing the inside be beniffical or no? Will be installing bracing after work today.

I really like those aero ports... I wonder if building a similar one to mine only with 2 aero ports like on yours would be louder.

yours could be louder with round ports, u could also tune to 35hz diff help #'s (most of the systems i see doing more spl than i thought they would use round ports) but i think u need a bigger amp for those 18's if u chasing #'s and going to comps.. just set gain crazy low for daily and turn it up for comps.. have u looked at fu page on fb? some guys doing crazy 3's with like 4 12's or 2 15's but they have lots of power..

You have no idea what loud is and have no business giving advice to Louie.

i wan't advising louie the other guy and i assure u i have seen many loud systems including 1 in town that has 21 comp wins and the champ title in that class.. and he had round port and 4k to 1 15 and later 2 12's (he's on here).. so i don't think 2k to 2 18's is enough if he's going to comps do u?

 
My system is more or less for my own enjoyment. There isn't really very many competitions around me. Maybe 3-5 in town a year I from what I've seen. Will only compete locally. And yea I'm going to get a bigger amp. Pretty much have decided on a SoundQubed S1-2250. I choose it because it's strappable so when I order 2 FU2000 SPLs I can get another S1-2250 and either run each sub on each amp or strap em and run my subs together. Was maybe looking at some 3k amps but I haven't found any decent ones I like for between $200-$400.

Nothing to add to this, Just wanted to say good luck and that I miss MiniDisc. OH!! Is that a Japanese Radio Tuner or does it get stations in the US?

The AudioControl LC7i has a maximum output voltage of up to 8.5volts. It can output up to 8.5 volts which is more than a typical aftermarket head...
