Let's Talk About 6th Orders, Parallel Tuned


Recommended Posts

was playing with WinISD

0db line is red, -3 db line is purple

my current box is Green

the box Ray designed me is Pink

and the 6th order is Light Blue

boxes.jpg

that 6th order has a range (-3db to -3db) of 58 hz or so. peaks between 40 and 41

so thoughts on 6th orders? port size and such. is this an accurate portrayal of what to expect? talk to me people.

my pink box looks pretty good.. Woot!!

looks like 1:1.3 or so....

and 37hz and 28 hz..

that box will just play retarded lows and thats it.

I wouldnt expect anything above 40

but it should be safe down to 15-16hz.

output will be about 13db higher than what the graph shows for the ported box.

but only about 4db higher with the bp box.

id assume that my design will kill the bp box "output" wise.

but the 6th order will kill lowzz

ok... first of all why not series tuned??

second..

so..1:2.2 ratio.. 30 and 62hz??

id tune up to around 85 prob.. so 85 and 31 or so.

open up the "low" end port a bit.

other than that.. looks ok.

Dont the parallel tuned 6th orders need to have the chambers tuned 1 octave apart, like on would be 30hz and the other chamber would be at 60hz
