Can anyone help me with a question I have ? I currently have a vented enclosure in my car with 2 JBL 2226 front mounted. After playing around with the box design using boxplot, the best spl level I can get is 142.7db I am trying to crack the 150db mark and have been unsuccesfull so far. I beleive that the jbl drivers are indeed very cabable however due to the limited constraints of my hatch back I am not getting there full potential. I once saw a design which had 2 speakers mounted face to face and wired out of phase of each other. I was considering adding another two 2226's in this manner I would also have an extra amplifier. Will this increase the power output? Will it lower destortion ? (I imagine it will) how will this effect the thiele small paramaters? should I calculate the box fworking on 4 drivers or 2? You propably think i'm nuts to try this however I love working with speakers and my wife won't let me power up 4 2226's in the house! Any help would be appreciated

I currently have a box with 2 drivers mounted from the front on 1 1/4 inch MDF. I was intending to mount these from behind and then add another two facing these from the front out of phase with ther corosponding rear driver. This would create a push pull configuration with an air cavity in between the two drivers. Any thoughts? Michael
