Subs getting stinky on low notes

So, I have 2 SA-15's in a 8 cube box tuned to 28hz on 1500 watts (for now). Box's bandwidth is 23-50+, and for the power it gets nasty. Recently started to notice the subs get stinky 2-3 minutes in when playing some songs with lows like 26-29hz. I have the gains set with a dd-1, so I don't think that I'm clipping. I have no bass boost or any eq on. I'm also not playing too much under tuning so I don't think that would cause them to get stinky, but I'm not sure. Any help or ideas would be great, thanks in advance.

set with what over lap ?

The -5 track, that's "suggested" when you listen to decaf or other cleaned up, boosted & slowed songs

Good deal...

Maybe teh FS of the sa's are not ment to play 25hz ? tuning is just that.... roll off..... i dunno..

turn it up till you burn it up i guess...

I've had people tell me that same thing, I had a 4th order bandpass before the box I have now that played nasty low too and they never got stinky a single bit, it was too big for the reason I got rid of it, shouldn't have lol.

Just because you tune with the dd.1, doesn't mean that all songs are going to be clip free. I'd put money on it that you're clipping.
