A Shiva in a 113L(4ft^3) box tuned to 20Hz seems to give a similar response to the SVS 20-39PC+, so I'm pretty set on this configuration for now.
How much power do I need to get the sound pressure level from the Shiva sub to match the SVS (if it's even possible)? I know a lot of people here use just one 250W plate amp, yet are able to bottom out their Shivas, which worries me. Would 250W be enough to keep up with a 20-39PC+(525W)? If not, would it at least be enough to beat a 20-39PCi(320W)? Using LspCAD from Adire's website, I am unable to get more than 106dB at 20Hz without the cone excursion reaching peak-to-peak Xmax at 30Hz.
Thanks in advance for your help!
