The day has finally come. I have my tempest sub, going to pick up the amp and ports from CSS tomorrow. The only thing left is to decide on an alignment. That is where i would like some help. I am not limited to any size, i was thinking of using one of Adire's ported alignments. I'll use it for 99%HT 1%Music. Which Alignment is best suited for HT. I was leaning towards the EBS Alignment because it was bigger and goes lower.But how much SPL will i lose over the other two alignments? I would really like bass you can feel( you know, in the action/explosion scenes). I watch alot of high filled bass heavy movies, LOTR, Matrix,Fight Club,Fifth Element, those types of movies. I'm sure i can't go wrong with any Adire alignment i choose,but wanted to know if any one was better for my applications

thanks
Curt
