[QUOTE="cotjones, post: 3045969, member: 573988"] now in this instance you are correct... xmax isn't going to matter much at all because the sub is at it loudest using a lower xmax... but then again it does... lets do a what if here..... lets take 2 12's, they are identical in almost all of there specs exept woofer #2 has a higher xmax.... they are both in an enclousure tuned close to their resonant frequency but at that frequency they can take enough power to reach full xmax... then sub #2 will be louder... but that doesn't happen very often (because most woofers can't reach full excursion at resonance)... the only time Xmax shouldn't concern you much at all, is when you are designing a pure competition SPL setup, designed to be burped, not play music... in any musical setup xmax is a concern... and more of a concern with more diversity of music preference [/QUOTE]
