Triple 10" t-line prototype- Dont laugh!

I haven't been working a whole lot, work has been slow. I'am using my old sub box for my home audio set up at the time, so I needed some boom!

So sick and tired of only having 300hz HP component set, I decided to do a triple 10" tline- Was going to be a dual 10" but realized the port area was a little larger than expected, so screw it, 3rd one goes in, and the bass tightened up a little more, got louder, and I'am running at 6.2ohms.. lol

So now that i have about 375rms on my subs, I have been very impressed, and getting stocked about doing 8 of these 10s in 4 tline boxes, all CRX style in the back of my truck

When I first installed the subs, I really didn't care to much, I was like "Cool, got some beats back" After realizing I only had 2 screws mounted in each woofer, the woofers started popping out of the box, and rattling everywhere about yesterday afternoon.

So went with all 8 screws, mounted, and tightened down, and damn, is it possible I gained that much air pressure just by securing the woofers a lot more secure?

NOW, I actually have to turn the gain down, and bass is in the neg -3/-4 area

Since I don't work tomorrow, I plan on getting a video. or something

So figure this is 375rms, I plan on running 1- SAZ1000Ds per 4 subs

So I plan to get a lot louder when I actually get some money, but for right now, this was just a prototype to see how these subs sounded in a tline, and I am very happy with them

Next- 8

Quarterwave is 38hz, next tlines will be closer to 35hz, closer to the subs Fs

Dont laugh, I was desperate for beat, and the box cost me $25 total to build haha

I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

phone wire? lol no

10g from the amp, and 14 gauge from sub to sub, the wire is twisted because I had it in another box twisted together with the drill

all I had available

Wahts up bro? been kinda curious about the t-line enclosures - what do you think of it? and as far as tuning and roll-off, where you at? I totally understand on the "whatever you have to get it together when funds are low" thing. still running all four 12's with a cheezedick kenwood "800"watt amp. (only getting 100rms to each sub) But as long as there is bass behind me, all cool.

P.S. And my bright ass orange 10/3 extension cord works great:)

P.S. Thanks Steve....for the demo!!!! loud as fauk!

haha.. funny I never noticed the extension cord, but Hey, I have done that before. In my SPL build about 3 years ago, I used 10gauge 240v laundry dryer power wire, but I guess that was almost overkill for 1800w/rms

I have literally built well over 100 tlines in my days, I had 150 speaker box designs documented over a 4 year period when I worked at the speaker shop, about 100 were tlines, and forms of quarter wave boxes from bandpass, horn, tline, spl and sq designs, and since then whatever I have built at Nor Cal Customs when I worked there, Extreme Audio when it was open in 03', and whatever else I have built

So if you have any questions about tlines, hit me up, still after all these years, still my box of choice
