Single 8" T-Line?


Recommended Posts

I have a SA-8 v2 and I want to make a T-Line for it to just see how it'll perform. It's going in my DD, (civic), so I don't know if I should tune it to low 30's like my past boxes or tune it to ~35 for listening. Plus, i don't know how to design a T-line or how the ports perform outside of it's tuning.

Total dimentions I have to work with (hopefully box isn't that big)
43wx26dx16h (i could fit a mock-up in with 28d, but an extra 2" to work with makes me feel safer)

I'd like to make it sub/port towards back and as wide as you can with it still being efficient. as long as it'd not over 16" deep I wouldn't really mind.

hmmm so i have actually made a t-line for an sa8 v2 but i did a expanding horn design. sounded alright but i think the horn design gave it to much line area and made it really sound hallow. i would do a taper. to start with with enough area at the closed end to fit the mounting depth and the taper the correct amount or maybe a bit smaller lol but i also don't have much to back that design either. i building a box like that right now and i can tell you how it sounds. it's also tuned above the fs so i can tell you how that goes too.

edit: i wrote this half asleep so i'll come back tomorrow and maybe be a bit more helpful :P

Thanks for helping bro, I just have a lot of questions about T-lines and how musical they are. I could just do a 4th order but I don't know how those 8's llike 4ths.

I had my sa8 in a tline and it was nasty. I made a user error and smoked it but will recone and put it back in. I currently have my mtx 5508 on 125 watts in my impala trunk and its a bad lil bitch. The sa8 was even badder on 600 :)

I'm probably going to tune to ~35hz for daily. 39hz is fiiiine with me though, if you still have that box design hit me up
