[QUOTE="Papermaker85, post: 8593067, member: 572595"] back in the late 1990s and earily 200s we used the bnK meter at the big shows which was actually 1DB down from the termlab when it first came out. 8 15s in a wall with 4k tuned to 28 was doing 157 on the b&k this was in a van and was a 3rd row wall so to speak. 4 lunar 2200HCs on 8 elemental design k 15s. that was about 15 years ago. back when loyd lowery and nick and the boys where on the scene doing mid 150s with single drivers i done a 153 legal on the b&K at a triple pointer in Lafayette with ONE 9515 and 2 punch x7s. again about 14 years ago. if i was older than 17 id be shocked. i even have pics of my with the 9515D. it was they first batch of D series woofers. i think that was in 03. 147 is actually a good score for a driver with a 86db 1w1m and just being in the trunk no tuning not to mention one of the best subs I've ever heard. The new driver cuts out alot of mass and has alot more cone area and alot stiffer suspension. It is still built on a platform built for low distortion so its still not a purpose built SPL woofer but more of your typical street beat woofer that people would normally use. I'm gonna tune it a-bit higher and get the phasing much better this time around. phasing in trunks are tricky. last time i did a small trunk build firing to the side port back did nicely. I'll give that a shot and see how it does. [/QUOTE]
