4 15'' XL Build *Updated*

Sold my lvl 4's/lvl 5 coils. Picked up 4 new 15'' XL's. Built a new box, its ~15 cubes tuned to 30hz with 4 6'' aero's. Fiberglassed and resin'd the whole inside. Still using the RD D9 @ .5 ohms, subs are probably seeing ~5600 rms. Taking a 12 hour drive with a bunch of people from the northwest down to autorama 2011 in cali. Meca, db drag and iasca i believe are having competitions. Took a quick vid, camera doesn't pick up everything, need to break these in they are very stiff.

I was debating on 2 18'' XL's or Lvl 5's, or do the 4 15'' XLs. More cone area ftw so i took the 4 XL's

Nice, should be nasty. Box is about 15 cubes @ 30hz, with 4 6'' aero's. I think i need a little more port area should gone with 8'' aero's

yea i wanted great lows but didnt wanna take up the hole cargo area just yet.
off rusty's specs the box will be 7.5 cubes tunder to 34hz.. should get some awesome lows in the box off a sd5000. with a vcm i'll set voltage at 14.9.
at 14,4 the sd5000 puts out 6500rms so the subs should see that at all times(give or take a little due to box rise) until next year when they get a sd8000's on them :)

Have you ran the sd5k for a while now or did you just get it? I have a bunch of buddies who have been running the 8k's and all of em have gone up in smoke. One guy had it go into protect and he opened it up and had bad soldering job. Other 2 guys both of theirs wouldn't turn off, and after that they finally blew. People are now saying they are better off as burp amps not daily. My friends that had the bad soldering, he got it fixed under warranty and sold it and now he has the sd16k coming in any day now. just wondering your experience with em.
