Yellow1000 Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 Well I built a t line for a pair of dd 508s. It's tuned at 43 hz. Below that sound is non existent. My question is. These have an FS of 47. Will I have any luck getting them to play lower them 40-43 hz?
Massivespl Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 Yes. U deff messed up the enclosure somehow. Those subs will play down way past 43hz c-pillar flat wall 157.11db on music 2 crossfire 8k 4 NSV3 18s 4 crescendo 10s 4 Rockford pro 6.5s Quad excessive amperage 350alts 4 juicebox 3100s
Yellow1000 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Report Posted November 17, 2015 Hmmm. I even tried to rig a foot long extension on the box but it didn't seem to make a difference.

LT.Smoke Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 Yeah something is off here bro. My buddy built a T-line for a 1508 and it smashes for a single 8 Team MaxRetribution Si Vis Pacem Parabellum Id rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6 Bowhunting- Life Begins and Ends at Full Draw Bowhunting Team Fatal Trajectory Hunt Team http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/49335-sick96vtecaccords-t-line-build/?hl=sick96vtecaccord << Accord Build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/68498-smokedout08impalas-tline-build/?hl=+sick96vtecaccord << Impala T-line build Rebassed.com for all your music needs 👌
3vil Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 From my understanding of t-line design, adding another foot to the line length would raise the tuning not lower it. What I think you nedd to play around with is lining the line with something to slow the backwave down. I can't remember the material that was recommended, but it's dicussed in the t-line mega thread.
jroo Posted November 17, 2015 Report Posted November 17, 2015 adding line length should lower the tuning on a tline. He is tuned to the Fs but they are pretty high, most would say tune lower than fs which would mean adding more line length. Thats the trade off with T lines and subs with low Fs. You sometimes end up with a huge box because of all the line length to match the Fs of the speaker. He also didnt say how much port area he has either, which can also affect this.
Yellow1000 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Report Posted November 17, 2015 Oh it's really loud for what it is. From 40 hz and up its comparable to the 2 12s I had before these in a vented enclosure tuned at 34. But I wanted them to reach down a bit more then 40 lol. I'll post a pic of the box.
Yellow1000 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Report Posted November 17, 2015 I have 84 square inches of port area
