My small build , "New Focal component set" Pg 89


Recommended Posts

Looking good for a comeback build! A lot of folks have been going with CT Sounds lately. Coleman is doing something right! I've been eyeing the 1400.1 as well. Its either that or the RF 1500.1 for me. Let us know how that amp works for you! Would help me tons.

That box tho! Pretty good looking! What did you coat it with? Doesn't look like just paint.

Its rustoleum (spell?) hammerite paint.

The thing i see is if the stock speaker pods had been able to stay to help act like an enclosure for the mid driver that might have helped. But since its gone you will want to seal up the door as much as possible to get the best response from the speakers.

This is what i did to seal the doors and get the best i could from my speakers...

Well in the spirit of me always changing my mind. Lol

I ordered an velleman hp50 oscilloscope but returned it for a refund. I just placed my order for the DD-1 CC-1 combo instead. It was the same price and think it will be better for what I am doing. Should make it a lot easier to set my gains and crossovers.

Just for fun I inverted my RE audio SEX 10 D4. IMO I think it sounds better. Not much difference between normal and reversed phase. Maybe a little lower reversed??

You won't regret getting the dd1 or cc1. They are awesome

Looks nice! Did you tune your box for woofer displacement? And if so wouldnt inverting it change the tuning of the box by adding more volume? I am not sure since i am no expert, just asking. Hate to see you lose the lows from the sub due to hz change from sub being inverted. I am sure others with much more knowledge can chime in with the right answers. Love the box! How are the doors coming along?

No I actually tuned it without displacement so all is good on that point.

Have not worked on the doors. I will do some work on it maybe on Tues I can get the pass door done. Just busy this weekend with family stuff going on.
