road to 140 on music

5 cubes is a little big for (2) 12s dont you think? Maybe 4-4.5 cubes on that power. I'd also retune. But yeah, you should definitely be hitting more than 133. I did 142 with 1 15 and 1200 watts.

well i have the other amp coming next week and yes they are d2. so just double the power and i can still run at 2ohm correct.

if you strap both amps you can wire it to 2 ohms but each amp will see 1 ohm so each woofer should get ~1500

i was shooting for 4.5 but i made a mistake. so its a lil bigger. but it still sounds great. and friggin birch is expensive. they where out of mdf so im going to cut the holes bigger for 2 15's for a buddy of mine and sell it to him for $50

i would do 3 to 3.75 cubes total and 15 to 18 sq inches of port per cube tuned to 35 or 36 hertz

I did a 136.8 at the headrest in my standard cab S-10 with 2 RF P2 10's wired to 2 ohms on an RF 450.2 amp. 3.5 cube box peaking at 41 hz...1 year later in doing 141.9 at my last comp with 4 sealed SS 12's on 3k rms which seems like a low score but im peaking 38hz.

I think you should definately go with a smaller box for this.

140 should be 'easy' with that equipment. In fact something had to have been way, way off to only do a 133.
