Got Bored Cool Box


Recommended Posts

i dont know why people want to tune to resonate freq of a vehicle. Would that not create a peak in output at that freq? Why not tune to where you get the flattest response curve?

Maybe there are two schools of thought on this. 1 being "im going to compete and i want to win so who cares how it sounds" and " i like to listen to music and hate a box that goes boom boom boom boom boom boom"

Am i missing somehting?

...Please Ttritcum, if I am speaking blasphemy, stop me.

I think your post pretty much hit the nail on the head.

To expand on what you said a little bit, in my opinion the importance of tuning the front chamber to the match the Fb of rear chamber is a bit overstated in the car audio world. I think people run into a lot more issues from trying to use a sub that is inappropriate for 4th order bandpass use.

Yeah lots of people buy then design. If I ever went with a 4th as a design I would pick a sub with a EBP of below 50 from the get go. I have been eyeing a single sa12 in a 4th for ever.

Strangeduck, I was speaking of tuning to the resonant frequency of the sealed section.

I'll admit, half way through sanding that fiberglass in the rain and cold while I was all itchy I was definitely starting to question why i was doing this haha

to the sub does pretty well in a sealed box, this also could be a factor alot of people try to run them in to small of a ported box because they lack room. As of now im trying to get ideas. as apparently no one has ts parameters and i have to test the sub myself when ever murphy decides to start on it

not really anything related to op, but I have been told this...

When building a bandpass wall, build the entire enclosure, install the sub in the sealed side but do NOT assemble or install a loading wall/port of any sorts. For SPL purposes, keep in mind... Use the sealed side to find the resonant/peak cabin frequency, then build your loading wall/port to that number.

But then again, the guys saying this wouldn't play music, but they did go brrrrrrRRRAAAPPPPpppp really well

why 2 ports? seems like that will just create more port surface area then you need to, more port surface area more resistance
