Does it beat itself to death? What are the contributing factors?
What aspect of the ported enclosure produces the sloppier and boomier bass?

Your measured impedance will change if the coil moves in the gap at all. This could be from being bumped, leaning on the cone, or moving it at all.

I like it!

Although I'm a little sad I didn't get to see a 160 officially out of the expedition, this setup looks really cool. I always love a good street setup.

Mid to high 54's?

Of course you can get 180 amps, it will primarily come from the battery. You would see a significant voltage drop.
Not unrealistic to regularly see 11 volts or less in large systems.

Would it actually beat itself to death or would it just exhibit unacceptable excursion at high levels?

Subsonic filters don't really have to be 5hz below your tuning. A ported enclosure will exhibit acceptable control for a full octave below tuning. I wouldn't hesitate to set your sub sonic filter at...

Re: Cheap Subwoofer system... Just want some BASS

That's probably your only option for a slim mounted sub for cheap.
It probably won't sound great, but it might do what you want.
And honestly, if that doesn't do what you want, then for your...

Your best sound would be a high quality cd player, like a Nakamichi, Eclipse, Sony ES, etc. Throw away your mp3 players and break out the cds again. Proceed to enjoy good sound.

Re: Amp wiring help

Pretty cool find, I like seeing older equipment pop up every now and then.

Like GLH said, it's a 4 channel with relatively low output by today's standards. You will probably see close to 100 watts...
