MACnonsence6 Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 whats the benefits if anything to using a ti basket vs a 12 spoke. i understand the tis use bigger diamiter spiders plus the added benefit of the spacer. im planning on buying a pair of re destroyer motors and would like to use ti baskets. from what i understand with a ti basket id be able to increase xmax as well as being able to keep everything linear bring the spacer alows the coil to be help in 2 places instead of one. atleast that is my under standing someone please chime in if im wrong. im trying to build a pair of these to be able to take a ct sounds 7k daily so advice and imput on that regard would be amazing. I picked up an MTX Sw1212 powered subwoofer today. This thing sounds amazing. 130 watts, 12" woofer with a passive 12" woofer tuned to 27 hz. Moving the pictures on the walls and my girl got wet from the bass when i showed her haha. Tonight should be good haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krakin Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Being cast aluminum it has great thermal properties to help the voice coils, the resonance will be above what the driver can do, the structural integrity and rigidity are very strong, and cast materials will never bend. They will however break if there are enough forces applied to it, but not bend.

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . . What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself but what has drawn your attention in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears, thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

Krakin Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 At the price difference I world assume not, and is stamped steel. I don't remember for sure and it doesn't show on eBay so if anybody that can confirm it, it would be nice.

Next would be stamped steel then custom tooled aluminum.OP you essentially answered your own question, they are nice baskets! 1998 gmc extd cab 12 crossfire C710s 4 SAZ-4500s 3 Singer 400A altsbuncha mids/highs Team Asshole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HHR Ed Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Ti Baskets and 12 spokes are both cast aluminum. TI Basket usually has a different bolt pattern than 12 spoke but you must check as there are half a dozen or more versions of each. Ti Basket has 10" Spider rings on 12" + 12 spoke can have stepped spider rings up to 8.5" Ti basket has opening for 4" coil motors 12 spokes usually have opening for 3" coils and smaller. Ti baskets are deeper from cone to spider. Ti Baskets are deeper from spider to motor with larger area for ventilation. 12 spokes are less costly and fit on more motors More soft parts are available to fit 12 spokes.
