[MemphisCherokee 10+ year member]

well, after a weekend of 8 hour shifts im to lazy to search

but...........

i was curious as to how a bandpass box works, (no need for dumbed down terminology) the difference between the different orders, and possibly examples of/picuters of the innards of each.

also, what makes these different from ported and sealed, and what advantages/disadvantages do they have over sealed or ported.

i know im askin alot but im new into this stuff and really starting to love building systems and all that junk.

thnx -derek

I'm starting to play with bandpass designs. Basically this is a combination of a sealed and ported enclosure. You will get a clean transient response (like a sealed box) and gain a couple dB (like a ported box) within the passband if the box is design correctly.

Here a good explanation: @ 12 Volt
