Thanks ya'll, I have competed on the world level and judged for a couple of years. Great fun. All of the trophies are now religated to the Attic.. USACi always had nice trophies.

But Alas, I am a family man now and just cant afford to go off to a competition every weekend all over gods green earth.

I'll be an audiophile forever though. (or till I go Deaf)

thanks for all the input fellas. I believe it's going to be in my best interest to either leave the setup how it is or just redesign my current enclosure to house another 12'...

Two different sized woofers?

ARE YOU CRAZY? You'll mess up the whole space/time continum and might destroy the entire planet.

Nah, come to think of it, you'll do just fine.

The misinformation thrown out around here is quite humorous at times .....

Anyhow ... if you can get another woofer of similar specs, to give you a box of the same Q and F3 ... you'll be perfectly complimentary. There is no cancelling and no problem at all.

Instead of doing this .. how about getting one better woofer to make the problem go away altogether and utilize more of your amp.

That Impala up there looks to have Premier 12" PRS woofers ... best SQ woofer I have ever measured or heard.

yes, steve was part of team pioneer, so everyhign in the car is pioneer, i have ran the PRS subs too, definetly one of my fav sq subs as well, but not quite an sql sub, just didnt have that much output IMO, something like an IDmax to me, is still a superior subwoofer in the overall sense to my ears

I've pondered this idea, but the problem I have is the mounting depth of superior subs. My current sealed enclosure only allows around a 7 inch mounting depth. The Fosgate T1 12 was the best sub I could find that had a small enough basket to fit in the enclosure, not to mention I can pick them up for only $180.00 each.

It does "sound" like that, since the bass is so dry and undistorted, but I assure you .. they have a verified 20mm of nearly flat Bl and Compliance symmetry. The only problem with them is that they are really 11"ers .. not 12s (area wise)
