I've now turned the Tuba 180 degrees, so the mouth is away form the corner.
Stupid move you might say.
Not in my room.
This way the bass seems so much more omni directional!
And it takes the top off of the very low end, which actually is rather loud!!
More testing to come

I've had it up to 20v, that gave me a headache, so I turned it down and during listening it peaks at about 2.5v
If you want to play it safe, don't go beyond 25 volts or so, which is about 80% of the RMS rating of the driver (~28 volts is the RMS rating).
