Nothing much to look at, just 5.5" ID sonotube, 10" long. Should give me a 40hz tuning frequency for each sub.

It feels louder, and there's another SPL comp on the May 6th weekend, so hopefully I'll be able to meter it then

pfffft finishes are overrated

The box is 3.2cf per chamber, and I did 146.38db @~43hz.

Now the box is ported, tuned to about 40hz per side, and hopefully I'll be a little closer to 150

My MJ gave off a little bit of glue stink while breaking in.

Thanks guys, I'm hoping it'll be louder! heh

Wish I could have the ports rear firing, but I'd need some PCV for that....

Aaron, running the subs near tuning frequency with 1kw a piece...yeah I got glue smell in probably 30 seconds, and you could feel the air/inside pole piece start to heat up too.

But these things are built like TANKS, they're unphased after all I've put em through
