Seal vs. Ported (SQ and space)

Pretty sure its 12db. Does the amp not have LPF?
It does. I leave that set at 150Hz. If I am not cranking the subs and I have the subs gain turned down (through HU control) and it sounds pretty good with the HPF at 150 and the LPF at 150. I just can't leave it like that with the subs turned up because the 80-130HZ range is over powering.

So you should really be crossing the subs once. Do this instead. Turn off (or max out) the LPF on your HU. Use the LPF on the amp instead, it goes down to 50Hz. Start around 75Hz, see if it sounds better - work your way down to see where it sounds best. Btw how do you it's the 80-130Hz range that's overpowering?

I do a fair bit of audio mixing and so I know from the software what fq the bass is at for any given section of a song and my ears are telling me that the volume is out of balance when a song plays in that range. I'll play around with your tuning recommendation and see if I can get a better tune that way.
