uhoh_45 Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 oh this was in person or over msn i dont remember (talking to clay bout this was like 2 years ago) and my exploder i gave up on and got rid of it to much work and wasnt worth it the explorer was up and going but never 100% only had 2 of the 4 amps installed and never metered it with bandpass but it was louder then flat wall for sure (flat wall loudest 154 + change ) Quote R.I.P!

fecupe2001 Posted November 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 yeah, Bandpassses are way more efficient than flat walls, i suggested my friend a flat wall because that piece of junk trunk car it´s a pain in the ass to work , but, he wants something different so he´ll get it hehe Quote I´m the SPL Gains topic creator!! wanna get louder?? check this: SPL Gains.

dwright27 Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 (edited) Id do closer to 11 - 14 square inches per ported cube. Edit: the 2500s are ass backwards as well. I hear they like more sealed chamber then ported in 4th orders. I wouldn't glue the baffles in until you got through testing everything and getting the ported and sealed chambers to where you want them.

fecupe2001 Posted November 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 (edited) Hey D, that small hommie? my 2512´s seems to love 17 SQ of port per cubic feet, that´s why i was thinking on building bigger for the 2515´s BP and start shrinking, why so small? you had better luck with smaller port area on your 4th order?

In my experience, and from a few bandpass gurus 11 - 14 square per cube is golden for 4th orders. 6th orders, 4 - 8 per cube for the rear and 18 - 22 on the front port. Just my opinion though. Like I said earlier. Tuning and testing is the key with bandpasses!!!! Good luck bro. Edit: 4th orders are different from ported boxes bro.

fecupe2001 Posted November 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 nice input as always man, well i have many options actually, it´s gonna be two ports also so that would make everything easier for testing too, ok i´ll start around 16 or 17 SQ per cubic feet and shrink it from there, also, i always wanted to know about 6th orders port areas, so you helped a lot hehe, cheers!!
