45s in all corners of a wall?


Recommended Posts

Smooth surface CANT hurt..... No way... Not from "what ive seen, and whos told me to do it"..

but.. meh......

Two demonstrations with the dimpling of a golf ball and the affect of not having a smooth surface and finding the more optimal size, shape and abundance.

This one is an adaption of the process for the use with water vessels.

There are also plenty of examples with engines and the flow of air.

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.

well im not chasing the db as its more for show and fun then competition, but ive heard alot of places "claim" that sanding to 3000+ grit allows sound to "flow" along the surface with out getting distorted. im not new to car audio but i am new to walls and systems like the one im building. its over double the power ive dealt with before and if im spending $6k on a system i want to do it right...

so recommendations would be to resin and sand a little, test it... then add 45s and see if i like it more, if not take them out... or resin them in if i like it better?

soory double post, im new to this and idk how to delete it

i don't know, i guess i have seen a lot of guys get really damn loud with just shitty burp boxes, like buckets with a huge port. So when i see advice on building a "loud" box i take it with a grain of salt.

didnt look at your links..

but what im gonna do.. is add a "something" on each wall .. spaced......

Tony D did and Ray West showed some fun facts....... a bit a go

So you say it can't hurt, then say perfectly vague stuff that is exactly what I just posted..?

Which one is it?

Just leave the 45's out.

Golf balls travel one direction where as the air in our ports move in and out so maybe smooth is better more often then not in car audio where as in golf there is less friction with the outside of the golf ball as opposed to if it were smooth? I am just thinking out loud.

What I'm saying is, if a golf ball were smooth it wouldn't go as far but it still needs to travel one direction.

Air goes back and forth in are ports so smooth is better "most" of the time?
