To rehash the older comments about the low tuning... it's not so he can play whale song. The lower the tuning gets on this monster, the flatter the response gets. You basically CANT tune it too low. But 25hz offers a nice bump in output while staying musical.

Imagine everything you know about tuning for traditional subs and shift it 1/3 octave. It's 450sq in of cone with an Fs in the teens and a rather unforgiving Qts. It's going to be peaky in a ported enclosure one way or the other. Might as well help it out. Especially if you don't have to sacrifice output like you would with most of the drivers we use.

This build should be pretty f'n nasty.

As soon as I get the sub! I'll more than likely post those in my build log, which is in my sig.

Hellz yeah, hopin it gets rowdy. Roof is going to hate me.

I was actually able to get it down to 24Hz tuning with a decent amount of port area. Tuning that low hopefully I won't need a huge amount of port, but like you explained, this is a bit different. I'll see how it does once I get it. Only other option is a wall. C pillar at about 22Hz or B pillar T-line are my options there. Not really sure on the space requirements of the T-line just yet, just a thought right now. Wonder if I could squeeze a horn in there. Hmmmmm.
