(sorry guys, been out of the audio game for about 5 years now... trying to get back in the swing of shit) 7.65 cubes per sub. so ~15 cu ft, Id go with 190-220 inches of port. tuned to 32. thats just me though.

XX7R Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 AQ's dont really get that low. But they do get loud.

Ive gotta 15" BTL n2 and it kills the lows. look into DC or Digital Designs ive personally never heard the AQ so i wouldnt know on the lows, as far as DC'c i know they crush the lows, but think you might be a little out of budget for the power you have on tap. i wouldnt suggest anything less than the XLs with 2k per sub. and im guessing but i think they will be more than 600.
