Did 156.9 @ 43 Hz tonight.  Pretty low frequency, was expecting up near 49 Hz.

Get the mods done to the box, and I hope to have the 160 I am looking for. . . .

Killed a sub. Sounds to me like the cone came lose from the voice coil former.

Funny, the first time we metered this setup it peaked at 49 Hz.  Now peaking at 43.  You can tell pushing on the cone the spiders really loosened up.  Funny, my first set of cones were triple spiders.  I just found out when I took this one apart it is quad spiders.

Box is 14 ft, but when I make Marshall's mods, it will only be 11.

I think I am going to recone both subs with dual .7 ohm coils.  I hope with impedance rise, the amps will handle it.  that alone should make for a nice SPL improvement.
