I'm hitting consistant 148.3-148.6 but that seems about all for the current box placement. Gonna try and seal it forward and see if we get an increase there.

We're up to a 149's db music 44-48hz and 150db spl with only 1900w power with two 12's. You've got the equipment to do 149.9 but with a different box design for sure hit your goal with 10's. Here is a pic of the test box we've done so far. Still needs some tuning and we hope to do 149.9 with about 2000w and add power later to give us that headway we need.
What's making this design loud and efficient is the flared port. And having the box as far in the trunk as possible is also what is gaining us to. For every 2" further we make a box inside the trunk we gain .5db. Hope this pic gives you some ideas.

Hey Rob quick question... just wondering why you are strapping the amps??? next time you recone you should get coils to match 1 woofer to your optimal impedence per amp and it will do loads to save on your electrical... strapped amps are 2x the draw

The preamp inputs on the older 5k are loose causing an intermittent signal. I was just too lazy to pull the subs and wire them in series to achieve a 1ohm load. per amp.
Once I get the amp fixed I'll run them individual at .5.

Nope. If i do that the internal volume becomes way to big for the 10's.
I actually lost from shrinking my port width from 10in to 9in.

Ahhh ok... I figured that you had a reason for strapping them I just couldnt think of one lol.... bet you will be louder once you unstrap them too

That's a ton of power. Work on box and you'll do 150db's no problem and probably stop blowing woofers to.

Ross If I pull the L it changes tuning,increases box size etc... and just basically will kill these 10's.
There are other solutions. i.e. add to the back wall inside chamber, add a third baffle to the left side to pull it farther from the port opening releasing choke hold on air flow from other sub, build another box and tune it different, use aeros,ceterport etc..

take out the L and add another layer to the port wanna, the L port is the problem, try getting the subs alot closer together and as far to the passenger side as u can, so just rebuild the front baffle and it might be better.
