Solid 4 hour drive. I am in Fort Lauderdale. How much did you want for the enclosure
Oh mine isn't for sale but I would have helped you build one just like it since I have the blue prints and it was for the x15s so its perfect for your suv.but mine is birch which is a bit more than MDF but its a lot lighter! birch is like $50 a sheet and this 8.5 cubes takes 3 sheets with no mess ups.
plus screws, glue, caulk, carpet and terminal posts.
I do have a table saw and router and everything else and I did build this one myself.

What HU? I would used the HU LP filter. That way it gives you some sort of clue to where its at. Start at 80ish and work your way down to your liking. Boost all the way down. Honestly, I would adjust the gain by ear to match the interior speakers. Give yourself a little room for adjusting the SW level for those days you want to feel it.
After that, I would find someone close that could help you tune. Maybe with a DD-1, etc.
The filters on the deck don't go below 50hz and the box is tuned to 32hz. It's a pioneer 5100nex touch screen. I usually play it low unless I'm in traffic and want to rattle windows and then I turn up the decaf music.. lol Maybe I'm expecting too much I was just in my driveway and it does flex the hell out of the roof and some on the doors now.
l really need to find a good way to quiet the damn barn doors down they rattle so much =/

If you're in the South Florida area we could work something out! I was quoted 650 for a custom box..
im in tampa florida well riverview actually. how far are you?

if you don't have a box I had this one designed and its pretty beefy and tuned at 32hz I went with the x-15s. fills up quite a bit of my escalade.

LP is fine
Not sure about the SS, box is at 32 so I'd put it at 26-ish but you also have x's so they take lows really well. Idk about it, not really knowledgeable with SS filters and how to use them with box tuning. I've always just put it 6-8 down from the box once the subs are broken in.
In that picture is the gain all the way down? Turn that sucker up
Bass boost should be at 0 and stay at 0 forever.
We will fix this my man
gain is at about 8 so a little over half way up. i will turn the bass boost down when I leave work and see what happens. Oh and the subs arent really broken in yet either.

Well, that pic didn't help much, can tell if lpf is at 300 or 60, can't tell if subsonic is at 10 or 50, is your gain at 8v? Lol give them a little turn and see if they are all they way one way or in the middle somewhere. Also turn the bass boost to 0.
gain is around 8v, sub sonic is a little above 10, boost is half way up, lpf is about 50? phase is 0.
the LPF is turned off on my deck and the EQ is set to flat.
btw im running 2 x15 sundowns in a custom box tuned to 32hz.

I agree with the duck.
To me, It has to be a setting of some sort being off. That amp is a proven tank. Time and time again.
Also, don't worry about dropping a volt and not making any power. To the ear, you wouldn't know if you where holding 15v or seeing battery rest. Take a picture of the gain, low pass, and infrasonic dials please, and report back.
Edit- and you paid someone else to turn a knob? Actually, let me re ask that. A asshole at a shop took your money to turn a knob ? That guy is a dick. Not only using his ear, but even charging you to do it. What a stand up car audio lover. Jesus.
I have def heard this amp is a beast I'm just hoping that DB-R.com doesn't repair them with crappy parts that make them drop in performance. I am going to clamp and volt meter it later to see if i can get some kind of readings on wattage output since I don't have access to a dyno.

I'll have to look in a bit. I had a stereo shop set it all for me but he did it by ear. So hopefully he isnt half deaf and caused him to set stuff wrong

Wired outside the box would still be 1 ohm
figured so but wasn't sure if it would be less resistance wiring it outside maybe inside creates more and that could cause problems?
I have a feeling its because my volts drop to 12.5-13.5 when this amp says it needs 14.4 to put out 3k?

Ohms?
the amp does see 1ohm coming from the subs which are wired inside the box with only 1 pair coming out.

So IO ordered a SVC-3000D to replace my hifonics 3216 and I have to say im not impressed yet. Maybe im doing something wrong? I had it tuned at a shop sine they only charge $10 and I dont have the time to look over numbers and such to do it all.
I have the subs wired 1oh inside the box. Should i just wire them separate to the amp since it is made for that or should I keep it wired 1ohm inside the box with only 1pair coming out of the box to the amp?
also does it matter which + or - I hooked to on the amp I see that the instructions have them circled which I assume means it doesn't matter.
I am dropping below 14v usually around 12.5 or 13.5 and this amp says it puts out the 3k at 14.4? I am in the process of getting an XS battery to put close to the amp since both of my current batteries are under the hood and that's a long run in my Escalade. Do you think this will help with the XS right next to the amp with short runs from that battery? Oh and the amp has went into protect mode a few times with minimal clipping happening.
I got this amp from DB-R.com and I'm thinking about finding someone to Dyno it just to make sure thats how not impressed i am with it. My hifonics def made it hit harder maybe not as clean but def harder.
the instructions below only show there is 1 sub connected. so not sure if i should just wire them apart and let the amp do the 1ohm or keep it 1ohm inside the box?
