Fourth order enclosure for a single kicker cvx15 dual 4


Recommended Posts

I have a single cvx15 that I'm playing with and I have decided to build a single reflex bandpass for it. Can somebody help me out with some killer gross internal specs! I need square inch port opening and depth tuned at 45hertz as well I'm a carpenter so the build will not be hard

You need a port area of 109.6e-9homesteads, with a rear chamber of 2 bushels and a front chamber of 4 bushels.

The port length needs to be 63 barleycorns.

That is net volume not gross volume so you need to subtract the displacement of the port, walls, and the sub.

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.

The more drunk you get the more you will understand that post.

Basically, if you're looking to build a 4th, you're going to do it 4 times before you're right.

Those are legitimate specs for his sub.

You should be able to figure out those if you are a carpenter.

9-10 cubic feet, 180(minimum) inches of port and that's assuming a tune of around 48 Hz. So if you're talking about a square port, that's about a 13.5X13.5" square. With 10 cubes internal NET space, this makes your port(sharing no common walls) ~10" deep.

Port size: 13.5X13.5X10

Total port area: 182"

Tuning frequency: ~ 48 Hz

Port displacement: ~ 1.27 cubic feet

Box needs to be 4-6 cubes sealed chamber, 10-18 cubes ported chamber.

No one can give you specifics because on paper and in the vehicle are two different things. If you want a 4th order bandpass design for those subs and your car, find someone that will take the time and pay them.

Can we pay you ;-)
