imaging your woofers are fire, and your port is the oxygen supply..

without oxygen your fire is small, like your numbers.

box is not efficient and most likely why no matter how many amps you toss in there your number never really changes, and you probably have a crazy 3X impedance rise to boot.

what is odd?

My rise is NIL.. like.. nothing....

this is at .35 dcr, .5 nom.

check that 3x rise out...

no wonder i couldnt keep the 2 amps on... lol

Im at that point right now, which is why Im gutting my shell.

2 4500s at .35 each 157.5

4 4500s at .7 each 157.6

4 4500s strapped in pairs of 2 at .35 ( .18 per amp) 157.8

Meaning my box is not efficient.

My woofers get stinky quick with the 4 amps at .7ohms when they did fine with 2 amps at .35ohm and could bang all day and only .1db quieter.

The added power is doing nothing, even when wired insanely low except turning into heat.

But with my korean microwaves even wired down at a crazy unsafe impedance my tinsels are still perfect :D

measure rise with the woofers getting power using the amm-1. guarantee its going to way different man.

:)

still running same OEM leads after 4 years, and STILL get emails, pms and fb messages about the leads.

Im getting angry about em now. .. anyway...

I guess its time to open the vent some......

Also, im done wiring down. I wont do it again,... .. ever. Ill just buy more board....

When i was at .35, my subs just looked goofy (hard to explain).. wired up.. i LOVE they way they play....

Guess its all in each persons build, enclosure, power, voltage, and the like... i dunno.
