Outside the cab, I hope.......saves relationships. Actually, you can do the break-in while coating the cab......saves time. :)

Got the driver installed in the cabinet this morning and took it for a test run with Terminator Salvation. Had the Bash up about quarter volume and the Denon at -10db during the first battle scene. The look on the wife's face was priceless! I've read plenty of threads about the power these things put out. Ditto.

Call me sheepish, but I don't think I'll ever turn this 500 watter amp up to half volume. I watched 2012 at ~1/3 volume and I could swear plaster joints were stressing to separate. It also seems that this sub is great at clearing my sinuses. :shock: I wonder if I can claim the building materials toward my insurance deductable for medicinal purposes. :lol:

Going to move the media room to a bigger room. I showed this to my wife as a replacement for my table tuba. Needless to say WAF hit an all time low.
If it's too loud, you're even older than me! Like me.

The camera angle is deceiving. Now that it's behind our display, you only see the top 6" of the cab. But the sound is everywhere. 8)

Next is a build to replace my aged mains. Something like a line array or the Statements.

Tempting. But how to sell to the wifey. That's the question. Unlike the thtlp (size), I suppose they could just, show up one day.
