bass_stalker Posted December 19, 2011 Report Posted December 19, 2011 as the topic states what would be the pros and cons of using a home audio woofer in a car. this is the model i am looking at but it has been reconed, it is the adire audio tumult 15' d4 http://web.archive.org/web/20060212095835/www.adireaudio.com/Home/TumultSeries.htm JEEP BUILD PROJECT ANTIBLING.2000 jeep Cherokee.HEADUNITAlpine Cda-9886SUBSTAGE1 acendent 18" audio mayhem motor with a TI basket and tantric parts1 prototype DAT hellfire 1000.1HIGHSStockELECTRICALdb link 0 gaugeKnuconceptz Kolossus 4 gauge1 xs power d3400 under hoodBig 3 upgradeold fourwheeler build The only way to delete your SMD account is for you crawl to steve meades door step on your knees and pleade for his forgiveness and acceptance to be released...He will either grant your wishes.....or choke you with a large piece of 0 gauge and electrocute you by hooking up a solid gold DC 12k at 0.000001 ohm and 10000 volts to your eye sockets and blow your head apart You guys act like you have never clogged a toilet and ran around the bathroom frantically hoping it don't overflow.
Socky Posted December 19, 2011 Report Posted December 19, 2011 I would say the low fs is a plus if you like tuning low low.

STEvil Posted December 19, 2011 Report Posted December 19, 2011 not really much difference between a tumult and a decent mid-top end car audio sub, they'll do about the same. 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.
Kevin M Posted December 19, 2011 Report Posted December 19, 2011 Home audio woofers can have a higher sensitivity (1w/1m) and a lower xmax but that isn't always the case. In a properly built enclosure built to specs it will play just as well as any other woofer. Edit. Just looked at the sub. Loving that Fs. It reminds me of the FI IB subs. 2005 Ford Focus zx4 AMT's and Planars 18" Infinite baffle
bass_stalker Posted December 19, 2011 Author Report Posted December 19, 2011 allrighty just checking my bases here but do you think i can get away with a 30 - 35 hz tuning?

STEvil Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 I'd tune 30hz. Make a port extender for 20-25hz if you want to test lower.
