Excuses are exactly why I decided to do this build/test. I am a very happy SMD owner but I couldn't get past the wondering about how the LVL 5s would perform in the same enclosure. I do understand the fact that subs will react differently to an enclosure and this is what I am looking for here. I designed an am building a box the fits best in my truck and not a box designed specifically for either sub. If there is anyone here in the North Florida area that wants to hear the 2 setups let me know, the more opinions the better.

will u be going to world finals @ sbn in daytona?

As much as I would like to probably not. I play minor league baseball for the Atlanta Braves and will be at Spring Training during SBN. If there is anyone from around me that is going to be going to Florida state finals in Gainesville let me know. I am going to try and have the truck ready for then but not going to get in a hurry and make a mistake.

I want to thank Dustin Jeff and Rusty for making this happen as well. without yall working with me this test couldnt happen. As far as numbers go I expect some where in the 52-54 range.

Sorry to tell ya but drop in test are pointless

that makes absolutely NO SENSE....why not elaborate

ive seen quite a few examples of drop in tests that just either kept increasing or decreasing in score.

my friend Ric who works on the Geo Metro (DD Beast) had a powerbass sub in a box and used the same power back to back...hit a 149.x changed to a DD9515 152.x changed to a DDZ 154.x (something along those lines) and your saying its POINTLESS?? thats the difference between a win and a loss at a competition. you just gotta be the nay sayer and go against something for absolutely no reason

Steve Footz had 2 DD Zs and did a direct swap and drop in test fresh out of the box with 2 DC Level 5s and automatically went up .5 db

wheres the pointless in that...

my friend Jerome is coming to pick up the BTL sometime soon...were gonna do a drop in test with his BTL and the one im giving him in my box just to see what she does (granted its a 1 ohm and my lvl 5 is a 1.4 ohm) we just wanna see the difference. so no there not pointless
