rockFord_Expedition Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Wow I can't believe this build gets no more love than this... So, does anyone out there feel like helping design a couple of enclosures for this beast? I want to do one burp box, and one daily (musical) box. Pretty sure I can do the daily box, but never have messed with a burp box before... any help or ideas are much appreciated! If I could bring ANY valuable input to the table I would love to help with your design for the burp box. He'll, I would even like to offer hands on help if you were closer. The subs and the cruiser are pieces of art man. Old School/New School RF Build March 2015 SOTM Winner How to crimp large wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I really don't even know where to start) Also, I got the sub completely finished, pics will be up tonight. Photo-shoot time!

CJ18 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 If I were to base a guess for a box off of the regular solo x, I know they LOVE big boxes. I ran my 18s in 8ft3 per sub. For your 15s, I would start with 5ft3 per sub and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For your 15s, I would start with 5ft3 per sub and go from there. I have a buddy who used an 18" in USACi for years, think he ended up with around 9ft^3 on his 18". I would also lean to big.

Purplehaze Posted September 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 I personally don't know anything about designing a burp box, but check out this build that Meade did for some team RF subs if you want some ideas.... I tried to follow that link, but something isn't right with it. Took me to a place I have never been before.... But it's cool, we'll figure it out. In the meantime, how about some final woofer porn? Okay so when I last left off, I was waiting for the dust cap. Well it came in, and I'd already had two logos cut for it, one in black & one in silver, so I could decide which one to use. It still took me almost two days to decide, and I finally went with the black. Btw I know these are simple logo's, but I completely designed them, they use different fonts for each letter, so I know they are "different". I think it's perfect. "SX V2" - I call mine v.2 because PSi already did them, but mine is a different version, hence the "V.2". So here is the cap and logos, right after getting the cap in the mail. The bottom is my original printout. So then I taped up the bottom plate of a 10" Kicker L7, to use for weight to press the cap down while the glue sets up. Done. And this one, I did a good job, no glue where it's not supposed to be After letting it setup for 24 hours, time to put the logo on, and call the project finished. (Well almost, still want to put some tech-flex on the wires) And here are the parameters I came up with. I don't know that they are all accurate, b/c this is a large driver, with a SUPER tight suspension, and the "added mass method" is just not the best way to do the test. But unfortunately, it's the only way I know to do it. So here is what I came up with... * This data was exported from DATS the Dayton Audio Test System * * Manufacturer: Trent Stover - Purplehaze * Model: Solo X 15 V.2 * Piston Diameter = 330.2 mm * f(s)= 41.43 Hz * R(e)= 2.96 Ohms * Z(max)= 87.24 Ohms * Q(ms)= 15.693 * Q(es)= 0.551 * Q(ts)= 0.532 * V(as)= 41.900 liters (1.480 cubic feet) * L(e)= 6.31 mH * n(0)= 0.73 % * SPL= 90.71 1W/1m * M(ms)= 288.80 grams * C(ms)= 0.04 mm/N * BL= 31.27 Now the main #'s I'm not sure about are the Qms (seems too high), the Vas (got different #'s every time), the Mms (too low 4 sure) and the Bl (also too low). I'm sure the fs will drop once it gets broke in, and the other stuff could be wrong due to my inability to use a different method. So anyway, what do you all think?
