"1.76 in total?"
yeah. it is easier to think about it as a total system because if you increase the spl of one sub at a time by 1.76 db, the total system spl only goes up by 1/8th that amount in his case, or about 0.2db, which is...
"A couple questions. If I bought another CV 5000 amp, I would get 900 ish watts per sub compared to my current 600 ish watts per sub. So, that gives me 1.5 db's more per sub right? How many more db's would I get total? I can't remember...
'not, do you have a suggestion for a relatively simple amplifier test that he could perform?
let's assume he doesn't have a variac, oscilloscope, and a method for dumping the heat of full power 2-4 ohm load testing.
if you measure the t/s parameters in series vs. in parallel, they will be different.
if you input those different t/s specs into a model, the frequency response and the enclosure will be exactly the same.
that is what i meant.

"The -77 distortion in my current DAC is clearly audible to me"
are you sure that you are hearing what you think that you are hearing? i suspect that you might be hearing something, but -77db distortion probably isn't it.
"If there are, it would have to be compared to something measured at the same time under the same conditions. Distortion is a toughie."
it would seem that the dna 360portion of the sweep could serve as the 'rosetta stone' for comparing...
it really isn't complicated. just double the number of drivers on the drivers tab and double the enclosure size on the enclosure tab and your done.
as a practical matter, t/s specs do not change based on how you wire the drivers and...
