[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8723978, member: 591582"] I'm starting back. I wouldn't do that if you can run at 1 ohm and it gives you more power. Literally every factor plays into what I was talking about. Clean signals, good voltage, quality of sub and box, vehicle resonances. I was just saying if you're building a daily system, it's way easier to do close to the vanilla ratings when pairing amps and subs. And just do a musical box based around bandwidth you want in either direction. I don't see much gain for doing stuff SPL competitors do like running lower than rated ohm levels on your amp or designing a box around it's electrical resistances. You just give the sub what it wants, good clean power and a good box, and it's going to be loud regardless. Box rise is there but chasing it for music it's like chasing the dragon. It's just going to move around too much because you're playing more than 1 tone. I'm fairly sure most 4th and 6th order bandpasses are going to have more rise because there's typically going to be more pressure on either side of the cone, being that there's the extra stage of compression in the front chamber. If that was the biggest issue, then why are the loudest vehicles in the world mostly running series 6th orders? [/QUOTE]
