update... test completed, rattled a lot of stuff off the shelves! All thats left to do is cut some hand holds and the last overlap piece off, and source some duratex from somewhere :(

db Meter is from 1m away... not corner loaded, sub is in the middle of the room so not necessarily accurate because of room modes, but It def. rattled the crap out of my window when pointed in that direction!

Its music (peak, not constant), Radiohead... however I'm still a bit green when it comes to getting the limiter set properly and this voltage was WITH load... not without... so I'm feeling lucky that I didn't blow it up. All the threads I've read here about limiter set up say to set max volts WITHOUT load (no sub connected) but when I do that it drops from 50v to around 36v. makes me wonder what 48v with load connected was pumping through the 3012lf! :chainsaw:

That's because it's safer to do it that way, both on the speaker and on your ears.
