[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 991547, member: 555320"] Not invalid; just not complete. What are you referencing your in-car measurements to?? You can't just sit a sealed box in a car and tune your box to the frequency that hit the highest score because you are not isolating the sub/enclosure peaks from the peaks actually caused by vehicle. Only way your testing will be worth a darn is if you do the exact same test in an open area, such as your yard (NOT a room in your house), and compare the two output levels. The frequency with the greatest difference between in-car and open space testing is where you want to have your SPL box peak. Sorry if you already knew that........just sounded like you were going solely by the in-car measurements....which won't help you any by themselves. [/QUOTE]
