Actually, SPL woofers tend to have lower efficiency. SQ woofers are normally the ones with high efficiency. Also if your going ported I would recommend tunning for a hz that is lower then what appears in most music. Meaning something in the 20 to 25hz range for your port since 30 range is pretty common.

-EDIT- it weighs 369 lbs haha

here are the specs:

* 6,000 RMS, 12,000 peak music power

* 23" tall

* 369 lbs.

* 900 ounce strontium ferrite magnet with extended magnetic field gap technology

* Carbon fiber and glass fiber dust cap with aluminum honeycomb center

* Expanded polypropylene cone with mica filler for reduced mass and increased stiffness

* FEA designed progressive roll spider with 10 AWG integrated tinsel leads woven in to allow for 2.5” of linear cone movement one way

* Aluminum shorting ring

* 6.5” voice coil with 17 AWG high temperature aluminum wire in a flat wound, long-excursion design incorporating 2.5” of Xmax

* Aluminum heatsink to maintain the optimum voice-coil temperature

My next setup is going to be Two Kicker 15L7's in a 7 cu ft box ported and tuned to 33hz.

Not sure about the amp yet, probably either an HK802SX, or an HK4000D.



News on my current system, just last week I installed Alpine Type-R 6.5" Components up front, they sound amazing.
Also, I got a radiator fan out of a Lincoln, wired it to a switch and relay, and put it in my trunk to cool my amps. Works pretty well.

They have em on ebay for ~$400 shipped. I'm going to probably be parting out my system as soon as I start construction on the new box. I think it's going to be louder than all hell.

Heres some pics of my concept drawings

The subs will be facing up, to maximize airspace. They will be flush with the opening of the trunk.




Here you can see the internal layout

ya that was with the MT... im sorta disappointed it was only a .2db gain but once i put some time into the build (more so money) i should see it rise slowly... remember i still want to put 2 15's, an alt, and at least 2 more batteries (i have all that but the batteries)
