would entirely depend on the meter type and calibration, and where in the car the meter os positioned so chances are it might not have been an acurate reading mate
whats your kit like?

loud, the box isnt to big so that it only drones and it isnt too small that its too punchy, sounds just about right really in the middle, the good thing about those subs is they are very flexible in their application

working it out, the alpine box is roughly 43.5 litres
pioneer say a maximum of 58 litres and a minimum of 35 litres, their recomanded volume is 46 litres (all figures are rounded off) so its not waaaay out

i thought the recoomended 46 litres is for a sealed box.. the best prefab box you can buy supposadly for the 3004spl is the 12'' RE prefab but only availablein america lol but if you get there dimensions you could build a minter..

tell you what though one thing we can agree on is there a decent sub with lots of movement and they rattle pretty much everything in your car

nope, 35 litres sealed and 46 ported, or about 50 for a bandpass enclosure

if you register on there you get the online manual, but its just the same sheet of paper you get with the sub
