logspace Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 How do transmission line enclosures operate? What makes them different than regular ported enclosures? How do they sound in terms of SQ, and note definition (rock and metal, lots of fast drum kicks.) How much louder are they than sealed and ported? Thanks.

StreetMetalBen Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 My 37hz 12' T-line hits the 32nd notes without too much problems at all. the 64ths sounds a little sloppy, but who ever listens to music THAT fast. The box sounds best to me on Dubstep. Tight, fast, and loud! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logspace Posted June 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 I see. I listen to lots of rock, metal, dubstep, and house music. I may consider building one to see how it sounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Hammer Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 You need a sub that will perform well in a T-line. You cant just throw any sub in and expect it to be good. What sub are you planning on trying it with? Is it something small(I hope) because T-lines for 12/15" drivers come out frikken huge lol. I sketched one out for a single 15 that took up the entire back half of my CrewCab Canyon LOL Quote MY BUILD *****http://tinyurl.com/gmcbuild***** Vehicles 2005 GMC Canyon CB1000r - Currently where any future funds are going.

logspace Posted June 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Do you think Alpine type R 12's would be ok in a t line box? Im about to build a sealed box for them, and experiment with either a ported or t-line with the rest of the MDF (I have a few sheets) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
