[QUOTE="bass_lover1, post: 3563834, member: 555256"] You do realize that the human ear cannot audibly notice distortion until it's at right around 3%, right? A well designed amp should not color the sound at all, period, regardless of the load it is driving. The only thing the OP should be worried about, is the current draw associated with the given load, will his electrical system be able to keep up? If the Type X is designed for smaller enclosures, then a small box should not hinder its ability to play lower frequencies, especially when you factor in cabin gain. I'd rather aim in the lower to middle recommended box sizes, and let the cabin gain make up the low end, instead of building a larger box, and getting your self a bloated bottom end, which would probably go against what the OP is trying to accomplish.
