  1. Subwoofer: Power Acoustik GW-124 Amps: two of the Power Acoustik Razor 2500's from Walmart, one on each coil. Enclosure: Custom Paraflex design Glass score: 135.4 dB Kick score: 136.1 dB @35Hz These are with windows/doors closed. When I opened them I would lose output. This is at 800W RMS or Less. I have a 50A fuse in my power wire, so probably less. I have done some more testing and found that output drops significantly at 83Hz, and is basically gone at 90Hz. I think what this means is that my high tuned resonator is tuned to low, and is probably causing me to lose output. It should be tuned at 90+Hz since my low tuned resonator is tuned around 30Hz. Usually these enclosures have a rising response where they are much louder on the high end and the opposite is true here. I cut part of the high tuned resonator out and things were looking good! Might cut some more of it out later, because extension in the upper register got better. Then I tried some low notes and noticed I lost SPL, but it seems it was my subwoofer blowing up, actually! Oops and also shoot. I let the smoke out of it. I’m going to be modifying this box some more and revising it now that I know my tunings are wrong in relation to each other. I may just make the high resonator like the other paraflex designs where the subwoofer mounts with the baffle vertically and the basket facing toward the mouth. I did it this way because I thought my low resonator was tuned much lower around 24Hz, so I made the HTR tuning around 80Hz, now they may be cancelling and reducing output, or loading the cone too much. These designs load the cone a ton as it is. I need a new subwoofer too. It did not like several minutes on end of test tones.
  2. I have a design I'll be releasing sometime soon that the DDX 12 would kill in but it's huge, 34 d 35 w 14 H lol
