Just wondering if anyone knows the max SPL? If I used REW and did compression tests (not sure how currently) - is that what I would need to do to work it out myself?
Basically I still can't decide if I want to add another one for the co-lo boost. BK wanted £320 for an empty gloss black cab for me to swap my parts into, to which I think I'd be better off just buying a new one and then selling mine - the question is if I buy 2 at the same time!
My current EQ is:
It's 'hot' because that was at master vol level of -22dB which is the about the most I ever listen at (usually -25dB). So it's my own form of dynamic volume really as my receiver doesn't have that feature. In actual listening it doesn't sound over-powered in the bass like it looks - though I fully appreciate if I started to up the master vol then it no doubt would!
I'm thinking that if I co-lo'd another BK next for it though, then assuming a 6dB boost then it could look like this black line:
The green line being what I could EQ to now currently - however having tried similar prior then I've found that bass level to be slightly lack lustre when in the -20's volume.
The alternative to this is a single SB3000 or 1723 Sub 1S (both being gloss black and solving that problem too) - and hence really the what's the max SPL of an XXLS400? I think that would indicate as to what would be more effective, twin BK's or something else?
Cheers
