Scrapmanson Posted March 23, 2011 Author Report Posted March 23, 2011 Oh ok well music sounds great right now! So may not want to shorten then? Any other suggestions on how to get louder? Quote
Team_DC-Derrick Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 double the power and double the subs?

Scrapmanson Posted March 23, 2011 Author Report Posted March 23, 2011 Lol I wish but wife only gave me part of the bed to use??? So can't do that Quote
Cashdollar2009 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Make a removable port that bolts in with t-nuts and try a few different combinations. Play with tuning (shorter/longer port) as well as port area. (bigger smaller port) My $0.02. Quote On 6/30/2011 at 1:11 AM, 'Ray' said: Acoustical energy is free. Electrical energy is not.

shogen Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 I agree with most saying it will increase your tuning frequency which won't be great if you don't change amplifier settings. Also what did RAM calculate tuning for this box? I don't think you can get any better unless you do a whole "new" box... Modifying that current one would be a mistake... Removable port sounds cool and all but for a daily driver I think as is should be fine.. Maybe have him make up a new enclosure for higher power handling?

If you had an experienced designer put it together, i'd stick with it til you upgrade. Chances are, he knows what he's doing with those subs and power. But you never know until you try some testing. Removable ports are inexpensive too as you just use leftover material as opposed to rebuilding a box over and over again. Quote On 6/30/2011 at 1:11 AM, 'Ray' said: Acoustical energy is free.

Scrapmanson Posted March 23, 2011 Author Report Posted March 23, 2011 Ok thanks guys! It sounds great but you all know after a bit we want louder! So I'll stick with this until I upgrade again! Ram did do a hell if a job with this design it's tuned at 45hz in a bandpass, get pretty damn low... Quote
STEvil Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 You could flare the ends of the port like an aero port, might get you a bit more. Quote MickyMcD - "Capable of making some serious trouser flapping volumes at where's-my-testicles frequencies, the Servo-Drives used to be fairly jaw dropping..." Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.
