127 db? That has to be completely awesome in a room! How low does it reach? Are you able to give us an idea of the frequency response? I'm wondering partially because that box seems small for 2 sealed and the sealed doesn't extend as far down as an ideal ported. However, the responsiveness (transients) of the sub should be insane even with a small sealed (I think at least) box. Push/push, so both going out at the same time? Side-firing or front-rear?
Sorry if this invades the nondisclosure agreement. I understand perfectly if you can't answer a particular question.

The demon that swings flame sword and whip? He was in chapter 9? I’ll have to see it again when I get home. BTW, that demon has a pair of wings but didn’t bother to use it when he fell off from the bridge. Hmmm, I wonder what Peter Jackson was thinking…

Well Gandolf didn't have any wings and he jumped after him. That's only chapter 9? I would have thought more like 19, or even 29.

pvc is slightly corrosive, and altogether pretty sorry compared to other synthetics currently available. an interesting choice for whatever you were saying about using it.
why dont you hook this up and test it out for distortion, there are numerous computer programs that can do it for you...
i am further curious as to what you do with all of the subs that you build/have built? who doesnt enjoy bass, but i dont need any of my space anywhere littered with boxes (surely heavy ones) containing anything, much less ones that are big and hard to move.
so much success at building subwoofers, why not go into business? ill take 5, only if they are offered with a money back guarantee of course.
my last comment is this huge grin that is over my face (just stopped laughing).
