    Resilient Sounds -- Frame/motor joint durability when spacers are used?

    Thanks for the suggestions... looking into the Deaf Bonce as there is actually a dealer over here. The other candidate that I'm strongly considering is the Sundown U12 as it looks like in terms of power handling, weight and build. One thing thing that is puzzling me is this strange impedance...

    Resilient Sounds -- Frame/motor joint durability when spacers are used?

    Thanks for the advice. Good to know that the durability is not too much of a concern. From the looks of it most value-add resellers are generally just piecing together catalog parts and it seemed that the Resilient Platinums looked attractive as an overall blend of parts (assuming the coil is...

    Resilient Sounds -- Frame/motor joint durability when spacers are used?

    I've looking at getting a pair of heavy duty 12s and ones that caught my eye were the Resilient Sound Platinum 12s. From a technical standpoint it has quite the attractive package in terms of power handling, huge BL and the inclusion of a shorting ring. Physically, I also like the inclusion of...

    Twin 18" PA-Sub 6th-Order Blowthrough in Trunk... Sanity Check.

Eyeballing it it's almost like the front chamber in your designs is generally 200-100% the size of the front chamber. I don't saying that as I think it's a funny that most...

    Twin 18" PA-Sub 6th-Order Blowthrough in Trunk... Sanity Check.

    On the Hornresp sim the cross over point where the XLs start overtaking is at 35Hz on the above designs. Out of curiosity I tweaked port lengths while keeping volumes the same and see how the B&Cs would do in each alignment: - B&Cs using 30cm rear ports vs 20cm (black) - B&Cs using 15cm front...

    Twin 18" PA-Sub 6th-Order Blowthrough in Trunk... Sanity Check.

    Hi everyone, I'm in the process of designing a new enclosure for next season and would like to get some advice. To give some context, the vehicle in question is a 2001 LS430 which has a sealed trunk which only has a ski-pass, which is suboptimal for conventional bass-reflex designs. At the...
