Giskard,

Boy, is my face red! You could see I was alluding to the possibility that the 2226 might overextend its excursion limit, but I never thought it might be this bad.

Bad idea!! I promise to return to the idea of placing a single 1500 SUB into my old C37 cabinet. I have the details worked out: 2x4's on top, bottom and side panels (lengthwise) for rigidity; 1 1/2 front and 1 1/4 rear panels; two 2x4's front / back panel braces.

I figure the final actual volume to be right at 5 cu ft with all bracing subtracted, but no driver accounted for. Fiberglas should even that out so that I will be right at an effective 5 cu ft.

Thanks for your kind (but necessarily blunt) assistance in keeping me on the right path.
