My letterbox X1 build **updated**

I would stick to that kinda power level... this cab can eat drivers... and you can't hear the dying breath.

mark: thanks,  do you own a pv2600/x1 combo too? or do you mean 'in theory' or based on what others say?  i'm not sure how the bridge mode is configured on the pv, i'll have to look into it. I can't remmember what frequency range its spec'd at but the manual says either 2400w or 2600w at 4r/2r, i just halfed that as a guide [two drivers].

Marjan: good point, i should take that comment back really. i think i tricked myself into thinking it was a reflex, hocus pocus logic here, just the amp somehow seemed a bit weak on them with the attenuator defeated they seemed happy - bit stupid really but think the 'signals clean so lets turn it up a bit a see' approach took over, but as i say think it really boils down to false expectation/counter intuitive perception of  power to output ratio. [i.e thinking doubling output =1:1 not 3:1?]

Phaze 2: nice one, i'll be looking out for the pics they looked quality, and re: power ^ what they said. like i think mentioned best use someones else exact tried and tested setup. I'm gonna tone it down a bit now too as even if the drivers don't pop its gonna short their life. Guess its a case of more bass = more boxes [more pictures ;)].

Hi mark, yeah in the end it was ok, you raised a good point though, be good to  find out whats actually happening like phaze one did by getting the multimeter out and seeing how it fits with the manual
