i would never do a 8th but if i wanted i could. i was just on a rant. lol

but yea me to Man! I'm nervous and excited at the same time! nervous because i feel like everyone is watching me and the results of my box will make or brake the rep of this kind of box. and that it will help control my sub.

and freaking exited because well duh! Its my first big sub! ( i don't Count my old w7 or mtx 9500 because they were used when i had them)

I've been waiting a while for this sub. the worst part is i can't begin the box until i get the tps parameters. and they won't be released until a few days before the sub is.

the wait is killing me!

Both mi e and tour build is mostly going to be box design that limits us. I'll have cone area but you will have power. Both in similar sized boxes and similar power supply.

box design will be everything.

Dude you're running an AB500.1 I hope to god you are doing a 148 on the dash. I have done a 150 on the dash with a single 15 and 1700 watts out of the trunk so I'm not sure I'd act all hard out of my 148 in a modified prefab for 2 12s off an amp that is capable of making 5kw.

Hey man, firstly, sounds like I rustled your jimmies a bit. That was not the plan.

Secondly it sounds like you have access to a lot more materials and testing then I do and have been able to and have pinpointed a very efficient setup. Kudos to that.

My only intention was to diverge some on the negative stereotypes in this sport. Whether this came off as braggy to you is, put bluntly, not my problem. Good luck to you buddy.

yea, well do a 130 with the box i just got from best buy and well talk!

all prefabs aren't created equal! everyone knows that! but what i don't understand is why you would spend triple the price for material when.you could do it better!

i honestly can't believe people are sticking up for prefab boxes. i really wasn't expecting that! I'm not being a dick I'm actually shocked.

i was pretty sure most of you were build.your own box guys.

but i have been seeing some nice prefab boxes on ebay lately. big cubes good Size port low tunes. nothing like the pos i have in my trunk!

I still wanna know how to tune a sealed enclosure, in sense of a 4th order tuning.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

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.

Lol, I actually got into it over prefabs on another sort of respected site and all types of people told me I was wrong and their atrend is the greatest. Nobody agreed with me and I just decided maybe it was time to come here. Atleast someone agrees with me

I don't think its exactly tuning it but just that different volumes will cause a it to have different freq responses. Like say a 10" in a 1cyft box plays 30-80hz great but the same 10" in a bigger box could play lower better.

either way I like ports, they look mean and get loud.
