TeamHT Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 I think you're the one sir who lacks comprehension. You obviously could not build the box, and although there are many who can not, this logic does not make prefab better. It just means you'll have to sacrifice and get a smaller incorrectly tuned box not built with the specific sub and install in mind. Just because someone can not build a box does not make the prefab better. It may be the users only choice but that choice will NEVER be better Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

skittlesRgood Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 I think you're the one sir who lacks comprehension. You obviously could not build the box, and although there are many who can not, this logic does not make prefab better. It just means you'll have to sacrifice and get a smaller incorrectly tuned box not built with the specific sub and install in mind. Just because someone can not build a box does not make the prefab better. It may be the users only choice but that choice will NEVER be better exactly. im sorry for not getting as specific as saying "a person" instead of "you". i have no idea what that guy can or cant build i was just making a point and it wasnt "you" in my examples. wasnt personal but you took it that way so it hints at the "noob" part again. sure if you(a person) build a shit box your(a person's) 1st time then you(a person) have a shit box. but now you(a person) build another one and its a little better each time. now, not only do you(a person) have a good box, but you(a person) also know more and arnt such a dumb ass who thinks a prefab box is better. ah shit there i go getting personal. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

TeamHT Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 Polyfil can be used in a ported box btw. yes can be, but i can not see the logic of intentionally changing the tuning of your box. maybe if the tuning was incorrect....but still....i just dont see it as logical. but the use of polyfill wasnt my point at showing his idiocy. i was pointing at the fact he was using mattress stuffing, not polyfill at all, it was just stuffed into the chamber, and his thoughts on how it was supposed to work were pretty inaccurate. most likely what some jimmy rigger thought and told him.

TeamHT Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 exactly. im sorry for not getting as specific as saying "a person" instead of "you". i have no idea what that guy can or cant build i was just making a point and it wasnt "you" in my examples. wasnt personal but you took it that way so it hints at the "noob" part again. sure if you(a person) build a shit box your(a person's) 1st time then you(a person) have a shit box. but now you(a person) build another one and its a little better each time. now, not only do you(a person) have a good box, but you(a person) also know more and arnt such a dumb ass who thinks a prefab box is better. ah shit there i go getting personal. lol, well what else are we supposed to think when he said he went to shops to see how much it would cost for him to get them to build a box. usually...the only people i see pay someone to build the box is because they can not build it....but $300 does not even seem too bad for someone who can not build or design boxes. here in alaska, people have paid up to $1000 for boxes. and mind you these are not fully customized glassed enclosures. and skittles, you bring up a VERY good point. no one jumps out of the womb with mad box building skills. some have a knack, others dont, but regardless of any inherent affinity for wood work, we all start somewhere and can say honestly, some of my first boxes were so ugly as shit. and when they got pretty, werent functional. which leads me to something i heard when i first started audio and building boxes. i was told building ported boxes were stupid and sealed were way better because they didnt keep pushing the air out. the subs could focus on making good sounds instead of creating new airwaves.

MADVIBES Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 WTF?? lol Are you serious? lol Lets be honest! 18" subs do suck for music! If they were top notch sq drivers people would run them in high end listening rooms. Now everyone beat me down now! I have 18"'s myself And no I could find a better sounding 12" driver by closing my eyes. That doesnt mean I hate my 18" It is what it is. Clean undistorted crazy output. Not very detailed thats for sure. Playing fast transients with a speed bass player is gonna be all over the place! Let the beat down commence!
