Isnt the 9512f from about 2006? Kind of old. I think they are making the i models now.

Well lets see not here to make friends, not here to give advice, then what are you here for?
Whats wrong with flame wars, at least it makes it fun. You are more like a hall monitor than a moderator anyways, no one likes a hall monitor.alright man, Seriously. read the rules. Please. You may not understand why there are no "VS" threads but all they do is start flame wars and cause arguments.I'm such a rent-a-mod now. But i did p.m. you telling you this already so i figured maybe you didn;t see it.

What is the crossover point.
-
Does it have a clipping indicator?
-
here is the info u seek
Yeah thats was a very helpful thread, 2:1 ratio at least gets people pointed in the right direction, Ill still talk to the manufacturer and research the ratio a little more to get more of a concensus.
-
So if people use 300amp fuse for 1/0 how much fusing is required for 2/0? Do they even make a bigger fuse then 300 or do you have to stack 2 fuses on top of each other?
-
Yeah i got that info from this site, alot of interesting stuff, but not much in the way of calculating the enclosure. http://www.decibelcar.com/menudiy/61.htmlMain thing I jsut want to know is about the ratio, if its 1:2 does that mean the 1 is the normal rated for sealed and the 2 is just 2 x that size, or 2 size the size of what rec ported is for the sub. I did that formula you said and I got a 12.546 or sealed or 4th, looks like it will work by 2 things I have seen so far.
-
I always used to just start the car pull the positive cable off the battery and if it runs the alt is good, if it dies the alt is bad. Its ghetto I know.
-
Well yeah thats the first thing i did also was to check to see if the sub will work.
I used this formula from somewhere i forget. (EBP= 1/qes * FS). And with that number it says 100 or more is ported or 6th order. 50 or less is sealed or 4th order and between 50-100 is any but im guessing they wont work as well but still work. The problem im having probably like you is getting the correct chamber size and port size. I tried using the software online but I cant figure it out, so im going to bug the manufacturer till they give me chamber sizes.
-
Im doing the same thing, trying to figure out 4th orders. Have you called or emailed the manufacturer to see if they have any info on 4th order?.

Some people say 1/4" fiberglass = 3/4 mdf, I have heard its 3/8". I saw on an old forum here a guy braced fiberglass with cut sections of rope saturated with resin to create more curves inside the box. I made a set of all fiberglass enclosures for my truck they turned out well and now im working on a giant box for my chevelle so I can mold it to the floor and trunk dimensions. It is friggin expensive though, im guessing 10 gallons of resin and as much as a couple hundred yards of thin mat. I think they build the base from wood because its much easier and cheaper.

Painted boxes look nice also. Easy to keep clean as well.
-
The pioneer deh-80prs is also a really good hu.
-
I have heard polyester fill slows down sound waves in a box. Maybe stuff a little in and see how it works.
-
Looks like you got an internal volume of 4.75 cu ft box. ive read that its 13-15cu inch of port space for each cubic foot of box. So it looks like between 61.75 and 71.25. sq inch of port space. This is just a guess based on stuff i read, not sure about it though. maybe a 6" port 12" long?. Thats just a guess though man from what ive read. Plus dc audio lists the suggested ported box size at 3.5 cubic feet for a 15" so not sure if box is too big?
-
So wheres all the hostility coming from?.just because something isnt 100% built to be perfect at one thing doesnt mean it cant work great at that thing, even better than some that are built for that.
but you know everything so whatever.
-
Put like a super turbo muffler on it, they are pretty quiet and also slightly better then stock.
-
Dude you are tripping, its not a vs thread, and its not a what would be louder thread either. Its a what sub will work for this enclosure type the best thread. I dont see how that breaks any rules. I wouldnt want to put a sub made for a ported enclosure in a sealed type box because its not meant for that.not to be a rent-a-mod or anything.
but the other reason your not getting any replies is you FAILED TO READ THE RULES!!!
there is NO what is better, whos the best, or VS threads WHAT SO EVER.
people on this forum very rarely help others who DO NOT READ!!!!
if you cant read the rules, why should we help you? you probably wont read it anyways.
-
My bad, I figured since it was a specific set specs for this type of box , there would be a best for the application.

I think if he saves the pieces he removes they can always be welded back at some point.Gnarly.
Although the car enthusiast in me is shedding a tear for sheetmetal on an ISF being cut

So im thinking the re xxx may be better than the w7's but the re xxx's weigh like 93lbs each, I would hate to try bolting those inside a box.
Need help with 13w7 4th order
in Subwoofers / Enclosures
Posted · Edited by Rich65
I was wondering if anyone has had experience making a jl audio 13w7 4th order bandpass for 2 subs. I have tried to use the box calculators online but I cant figure it out. I have also emailed jl audio several times to see if they would know what the chamber sizes would be but so far havent recieved any responses from them. I am putting the subs in the trunk of a 1965 chevelle convertible so I would like to bring the port
into the cabin. Im not sure how having no cabin pressure will affect the sound 
so im thinking tuning lower then the normal 45hz, maybe like 35 hz or so. The specs on the subs are:
qes
: .476
qms: 7.517
qts: .448
fs: 23.5hz
vas: 104liters
xmax: 32mm
sd: .0693m sq
Pe: 1500
no: .269%
Dual 1.5 ohm
vc
I have a huge trunk so size isnt an issue. Some people were saying 4th orders were a 2:1 ratio ported/sealed but I have also read that isnt always the case. So if anyone can help with the box calculator that would be sweet.
