i dont have much light in my gerage and i couldent find a flash light so i hope these can explain it a little
the way it looks now. same on both sides
the way it should look
this braceing for the port separated. the best i can do since i cant get any light inside the port. there is about an inch gap when i push the top part of the port wall up.

did you blow a tweeter... simple way to find out is to fade the music from front left to front right to rear left to rear right
and if you hear no song coming out of ANY of those sections then yes you did commit murder to a tweeter! lol!! also while doing this test it helps to turn the sub off or down via the sub controls!
and yes the smell was most likely the NEW sub smell of glue and what not over time it will go away!
yeah i got the sub sounding perfect today, i had some time to tune it a little better and it was PERFECT. i thought i had all the luck in the world until i hear a rattle comming from the back and my heart droped. i pulled over right away to go check the sub and it was fine, not warm or anything. then i pushed in on the top part of my port wall and bam its moving more then my sub did lol. i took the sub out and i saw broken ends of staples everywhere. i was really supprised to see that the port wall was held on by staples and no glue. i am going to try tomarrow and see if i can fix it with some screws and glue.
if i cant fix it, its ok i wanted a smaller box anyways lol

also i suggest turning down the gain a bit till the sub breaks in a bit more! jsut to play (pun intended) safe!
well on the drive home i got to play it a little more then 1 min lol. on the highway i was stable at 13ish volts. the sub started to smell just a litle not alot at all. i tuned it down and just let it play very low so it breaks in a little better. the smell dident smell like a burning smell was kind of weired smell hard to discribe it. i will beable to get a better eye of the subwoofer tomarrow i think everythings ok i just need to fine tune it.
i did blow a tweeter on the way home :(
thanks for the help Kenkid.
it beats HARD tho lol i am excited to hear it when its perfect

to set your sub sonic filter since it goes from 10-60 in the middle is 35hz so 20% is....18hz ish?
also is this is a used sub? is it bnib? it needs a break in time!
also how is your electrical up to snuff? what kind a voltage drops are you seeing across the amp(s)
also you said you set your gains to 1/2 way so...what are the amps outputting?: did you check them with a dmm to make sure you you pushing XXrms?
also have you tried playing with the gains a bit? down? up?
also what is your hpf set at? or what position is it at and what are the max/ min settings on the hpf??
i just went for another drive i played with the settings a little. i think i narrowed down where the SSF needs to be. my LPF is at about 70hz. i am dropping down to about 13-12-9 at full tilt.
it is brand new yes, i was also told to let it break in more. i feel dumb for forgetting that lol.

i got a little update. everything is installed, i will post pics tonight!!!!
there is bad news also. either this setup is way to hard to tune and i am a noob or i just have no idea what i am doing because i am a noob lol
the sub is flexing like a champ my car is flexing like a champ but the bass it just is not hitting like i am assuming it should. its not deep and i cant really feel it like i did with my 1 18" btl and 1 Saz2000D
the box moved up an inch or two because of the way my amps are sitting now. would that effect it? its a good 3-4" away from the hatch.
i am also having a hard time finding where the SS filter needs to be. it ranges from 10-60HZ, so i am assuming 28-30ish hz is around 20% up? that is the best way i can explain it. any input would help here please
i have a 2 volt HU and i have my gain just a little above half way. bass boost is 0 and phase is at 0. the slave amp settings are flat
my sub is wired down and reads 1.9 on my VM. i am 100% on wiring the amps up together it was pretty simple.
i need some help please. thanks everyone.

^^ lol thats why i love car audio!!!! the bass bug never dies!

Is there a reason why you want to push 4k+ on a 2500 watt RMS sub?
Andrew
i know the sub can handle the 4k daily. honestly i am probably gonna run 2k rms daily and sometimes the full 4k, but its mostly gonna be for comps
0 -
Whatever you suggest would be great. I don't mind what you do aslong as it will let me handle my 4k+ daily

i have a box right now that was made by audibel customs. its 8 cubes tuned to 32hz. My question is, is this box going to be to big for 4kRMS+ daily?
i dont mind getting a new box built. i was just wondering if i can save some money and not get a new one. some people tell me i will be fine some tell me it will be bad and some say it will sound bad.
i am open to any opinions.
thanks!

looks real clean! i bet that seat is heavy now
yeah the seat weights a tun, i gotta get used to pulling them down together now. i was thinking about making like a steal rod or something and screw it in to both seats so i can move them down better.
i hope my voltage holds up until i get a HO alt. it might be to close for comfort, if i get really big voltage drop i will probably only run one amp until i get the HO alt
