Sub enclosures design Training

[SoundFreakk]

hello guys,

I wanna train myself in making designs for enclosures.

So calculating the how big the box needs to be and tuning it with port and stuff.

I want to do this because I wanna get more experience in it and when you guys give me feedback I'll learn a lot from it.

So throw some projects on me to design and I'll start on it

Hope you guys are willing to give me some projects and give me feedback so I really can learn from it.

have extra money to buy wood? best practice is design and build

[SoundFreakk]

No unfortunatly I don't have that much money.

I earn €150 per month and it all go's to my project I'm working on.

ahhh over seas nice. There are a lot guys on here way more knowledgable then me but if you design some enclosures i can give my thoughts on them

what stage are you at? just trying to get in the ball park of what a decent design is? or are you trying to fine tune what you already know? if its the first, we can definitely help. if its the later, it really is just about trial and error, as boomer was getting at. just keep building something different.

ill give you a project.

two 12" DCaudio level 4s tuned to 35hz.

start with that and we will see what you come up with. i'll give you a bigger challenge if you do it correctly.

I'm going to start designing an enclosure based on 2 dc subs in a bit will post the results when done.

what power would be used in this case? my enclosures are based off power, cone area and motor force

for now i just want him to design one based on the specs listed for the speaker. if he gets it right we can add in more factors. just starting with step one for now.

@skittlesRgood

I'm going to start on it right away thanks!

I'm actually at the first stage you say so I really appreciate your post:)

EDIT: no thiele-small parameters on the site of DC for this subwoofer?

I've no idea where to base the calculation for the ports on now.. Any hints on this one

hint is to make box tuned to 35hz like he said,
