[QUOTE="Moble Enclosurs, post: 7457627, member: 634917"] Not necessarily, lol. But yea, not as great as something with a much lower F3. The high F3 frequency gives an indication that SQ will become the designs ideal output. This is figured by adding the transfer function of the vehicle to the response. Other responses can be added as well, such as losses and gains due to frequency changes, but generally not as major. So, this driver will be vehicle dependent in this design for anything below 50Hz for average efficiency. And when you think about efficiency, you have to consider the amplifiers ability to push the driver as well as the driver being able to handle it.

Most, if not all of those enclosures built for the 15s and 18s, or really any driver has the same cutoff of around 50Hz....and that's in a partially anechoic environment with much more loss than a vehicle. If you like the sound of concert bass, you will likely enjoy what you have as well. You can use that as a comparison. [/QUOTE]
