CentralFC Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Are they that difficult to make? I made one, put my Type-R in it, and it sounds fine. Is it detrimental to the sub if not made correctly? A little background information would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 someone correct me if im wrong but you can literally destroy your woofer(s) if you dont make a bandpass correct. NEVER EVER just "build" an enclosure without having some sort of plans or set sizes or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacomabanga1986 Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 i heard that the sub will over exurt itself tring to reproduce freq's that it normally would want to ina reg ported box i wonder if this varies between different types of bandpass's kinda like a reg 4th order or a 6th order? i wanted to try and make a tline 6th order bandpass box to see what it sounded like, i knew it would be big as all hell but wanted to see if it would work theres all kinda of bandpass boxs, and yes they have a different affect on subs too, i got one off a buddy to try it and i put my 2 audio bahn 12's in it and i could not hear any bass at all, i changed phases and that made no difference, the box was moveing around on the ground but i got no acual output from it, it was one of those prefabs tho Quote here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emoxihax Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 idk wth it was, my uncle gave me the 2 subs in their box for free, the box had to go though Quote 2004 Volkswagen GLI 1 10" Skar VVX ^^^ Looking for an amp to run it, Pm me if you have one ^^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralFC Posted August 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 It was probly a prefab bandpass... Would a Type-R sound better in a sealed or ported? I know it goes by preference, but I don't care too much. Whatever gets the most out of the sub with a lot of bass still left over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
