Crandis16 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) I plan on useing a double baffle and two 3/4" dowel rods for bracing. I also compensated for 45s in each corner Edit: It's for on 12" DC lvl 4 on about 1500wrms Edited June 27, 2012 by Crandis16 Quote My Red zx2 Build Log My Black zx2 Build Log My Red zx2 UBL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
412 CVX Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 maybe tune a little higher. Quote Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs.

sprkn_ranger Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 A lot of members on here have tested 45's and have proven that 99% of the time they hurt output on the TL. And if your doing double baffle, make sure you add another 3/4" to your depth dimension.

Ray Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Bigger box but tune a tad higher.

412 CVX Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 you can't really test to see if 45's hurt the score easily. you can't keep all things equal. you'd have to have two boxes, one of them has to be larger by exact amount of volume that the 45's take up, and even then there are going to be other factors that have to play into it. like dimensions of the box, port area, etc. i've seen people gain from putting a 45 in their highest pressure point. i agree that putting 45's in every corner is a bit redundant, but in some places, it might not hurt.

sprkn_ranger Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 I'm just stating what I have been told from very reputable sources. I have not done any testing myself but the people I have talked to about it have enough experience for me not to question their results. I will say that they can add strength to the corners of the box and unless your competing, you probobly wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

And if your doing double baffle, make sure you add another 3/4" to your depth dimension. doesn't torres consider the extra baffle when finding net volume? and I was going to use 45's to brace the corners, but do you think resining the inside and dowel rods will be enough? Bigger box but tune a tad higher. Like 1.9-2 tuned to 34-35 the bigger box will make for louder lows?

Now the resin alone won't add any strength, you need to add fiberglass mat or cloth to add strength, but the dowel rod will add strength.

memphisBred Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 i'm just saying that you can't always trust what you hear haha but yeah, bigger box, tune higher. I trust myself and especially trust what Alpine and Ray say. There's more than a handful who have tested the 45's. I wouldn't use them.
