[QUOTE="Spkrman, post: 1794223, member: 548682"] I do make quite a box... not proven by what someone who went from 2 xplod 10's in a leaky sealed prefab to 2 15" R's in my box...But proven by actual competitions, and actually winning [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] TCAB box last year, 3rd place MECA FINALS in AS2... and he was well underpowered for the class, and was in a taurus. This year, AS2 record holder thus far, AS1 record holder as soon as he gets to a show, and AS3 if anyone wants me to build for them. AS is meter at the headrest playing music... just to let you know that I don't build fart boxes. Most see the numbers they put out... and immediately assume they are high tuned straight SPL boxes, and thats just not the case. My personal accolades would be MECA M1/MR1 world champ last year... and having the absolute loudest musical car alot of people have heard, and only using 2 type R 12's to do it =). I have vids, comp results, and 100's of satisfied customers to back me up. I get the Q about res freq quite a bit, and its just not a factor for a strong daily box.... and most of the time the "res" freq is useless in SPL. You can put a different box in the car, and bam, it wants a different note... you can hold a certain panel, poof, play 2hz lower... you can move the mic 6", now you have to change the note. You also can't calculate the res freq... way too many factors. I've been there, done that... and it really just doesn't work. Can you use the *measured* res freq to get an idea of where to head, sure... its not totally useless. But you can sit on the computer, calculate the "perfect" box, drop it in the car, it peaks 5hz lower than you thought, and isn't loud at all... it happens alot. [/QUOTE]
