Amp Sag and the Brown Sound

I’ve been listening to too much van halen and toto and classic 80s and late 70s rock and i’m itching for more of that power amp sag. How do i achieve more of this in my sound? I’ve found post-eqing a little extra oosh around 4500Hz helps, but EVH has so much more, as do many of the tones i obsess over. How should i supplement? Take my tube screamer out of the front of the amp and crank the gain by hand? Idk what to do here.

Gave this a few cracks, my uni exam is tomorrow, just want to make sure i'm not losing my mind here. Assuming the piston is cylindrical, and that atmospheric pressure is 101kPa or so, I found two ways to do this, working attached.
Any help is appreciated. These numbers just don’t look quite right. I was expecting a value in a few kJ, not a few hundred J, or even a few J in the 2nd attempt. Either could be right but i doubt myself here.

Y'know the big ones you see on pinterest and such that is on the ceiling and is over the entire bed? Those. Can't find one online for the life of me. Where do i look? What do i look for? How do i hold eye contact with the poor guy who has to install it? i am not diy-ing this they come down so often. I'm in the uk, to narrow the search criteria a little.

Any advice, folks?
