Alex's next subs

And for the record... I did recommend a flat wall over a 4th given the same cone area //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif however 8 15s is more than can be fit properly in a flat wall in his vehicle due to baffle size. The cone area alone should justify going with a 4th. A 6th would be nice but it would be near impossible, if not impossible, to get enough space. The 4th is already a tight fit

 
Yep, you did. I don't just want to do another flat wall though. Really want to try a 4th and it should fit, if barely.

No way I could fit a true 6th and tune as low as I'd like without sacrificing output and/or bandwidth.

Thanks again //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

 
Did you break in the sub? You haven't had it very long at all. Also being tuned at 35 you will experience lots of low end rolloff - you should try a different box and breaking it in before giving up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif




Im glad you do realize that bl^2/re/mms gives you a good idea of the motor strength per mass. Don't forget you mechanical losses ; )

Years ago I pointed this out. I do like the design you have for a high out build but 1w1m isn't the end all its derived at 1000hz But I definitely agree keeping mms in check is a MUST.

Simply put every design has its flaws.

Sure they use a lot of cone are. The drivers on the market are terribly inefficent. 10 years ago a friend had 6 ed e 12s and 2 JBL 1200s doing mid 150s daily. Some little 2" coil woofers and maybe 2k clampped..
