cjvue Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 lol... been too lazy. Just pull some TS on some drivers base on free air method. Also did a few sweep runs to find actual tuning of my spl enclosures. Definitely a great tool and a must have, especially for sub builders.

Purplehaze Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Yeah your right, it's a must have for anyone building subs/ boxes. I got mine yesterday, and got mixed numbers. Think I need to learn more about it... cause I am doing something wrong. But oh well, I'll get it down soon. Like, by the end of this weekend... shit's killing me.

CortezDTV Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 So maybe something u should know with the caps, I would love to see you do a solo x logo but your own, With sticking to the cf caps if they are like mine, normal stickers won't work, I would try calling Fi/aa talking to nick about how they got stickers to stick to the "raw" cf look and feel not the resined over ones like dc SCSB Santa Cruz Speaker Box Build logs: Daily Driver Lemon Marquis 2 american bass 750.1s 350.4 on 14 focal 6.5s sq 945 on 4 hertz tweeters Mystery subs http://www.stevemead...__fromsearch__1 The Mustang 'dubbed' Shirley the project from bullet holes to badass http://www.stevemead...cond-skin-time/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it will be perfect. And since it's a DC cap, the vinyl sticker should have no problem. But I feel you on the "raw" cf caps, there is a way to do it. PSi did it as well, so there has to be a trick to it. I just came up with this idea, and it will be easy and perfect IMO.

When it comes to custom subs, you are pretty much on your own when it comes to boxes. Just gotta experiment with them. Especially with a burp box, given that 80% of it is tuning ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with a burp box, given that 80% of it is tuning Yeah I feel you man, I'm used to having to do it all on my own, so this will be no different. Although I will need some help on the burp box. And, I have ts parameters, that should help. I think I'll just build the first box, tune it for music, and see what happens. Trial and error time I guess. But to start with, for a musical box, I'm thinkin 5 cubes after displacements, tuned @ 35 - 38hz, or so. Slot port. For the burp box I was thinking 3.5 cubes, tuned up around 45 - 50hz, with an external octo-areo port. Any opinions or help is appreciated.
