for 10 18 inch Cactus mk2s

front-loading horn that will perform well into the 20Hz region and be

very suitable for BassRace-style applications from 30Hz up."

im not sure how this one works? lol but if pete designed it i guess its gonna be loud as fawk :blink::blink: well i hope lol... 1 160s on music hopefully

I would angle those baffles a touch and make that outside flare a giant kerf cut piece. I would also get rid of that lone woofer at the back. Cool design though :)

Hi,

first, this is a total mixture of box systems what never will work

as "thought". It will work, brutal,but there are so much errors.

Every sub need its own chamber, Horns dont work proper in pressure chambers,

so much big surfaces need bracings, and not just 10 layers of mdf glued together...

For me its hard to calculate the " to metric. I CAN do that, but I must calculate each

measurement seperately.

Such a big system is not easy to plan and build.

Will take lots of thoughts. I planned more than the built needed in time :)

And I still had to take some compromises in my car :)

I guess you will "kill" a lot of efficiency and power with that big box.

With a lot of brainwork you will get out more out of 6-8 18" Woofers with 3000 Watts each....

Remember, I just use 8-9000 Watts all in all now. (Cannot use more anyways at the moment).

You plan that power almost for one woofer !

The equipment can do so much I cannot imagine.

But the work, I am afraid, will be in your hand.

Practice and experience helps to avoid time for the built,

but this practice is expensive and not available for

everyone, unfortunately.

But the good thing, everyone can get this practice

by getting more and more experience.

But patience and lots of sweat is needed.

I promise you, you will be more proud of it than

getting a design from somebody else ! :)

Hope my little tipps help you.

Please dont be disappointed that it is not more...

I looking forward to see this monster happen !

Keep us all updated please.

It looks like a kind of hybrid 4th order bandpass/ really bent sealed clamshell, haha.

I suppose it's about the only way to get 10 18" woofers in with a configuration that means the woofers are happy in the airspace they are given...

I bet it would be brutal and go really really low - that much cone area in what is essentially a sealed wall is always going to wang HARD but as Oki told you, efficiency might be really bad.

Do you have room to do a huge flat wall facing sideways?
