Cone area calculator

Not true...
Its not the entire driver, but its also not the entire cone, its the flat area of the cone

the only flat surfaces in a subwoofer are the entire cone though...

your saying the only number that matters is from surround to surround, the area of that circle and im simply stating thats impossible because the cone is actually moving more air than that particular measurement.

Thanks for ****ing up my thread. The calculator was for general cone area, and just for people to play around with to see if, for example, three tens, has more or less cone area than two twelves. Doesn't matter whether or not if the cone area would be the same because for one, its just a rough estimate, and two, you'd be comparing the same subs most likely, so it would be a moot point.

Even if I did include it to have proper 'cone area calculations', it'd be different with every single sub... which is why this is a general calculator for just messing around. Guess you need to get past 5th grade math to figure that out though...

And I can think of plenty of subs that their stroke is longer than the depth of the cone....

Stupid *** *****, gtfo of my thread

i appologize for the childish comments i made, i just couldn't understand what was so hard about area displaced is volume(which everyone agreed), and i even got people to agree a cone has more area than a circle and still they displace the same volume somehow....

Thankyou. I apologize as well. We were having a miscommunication, to sound like a politician.

Can a mod clean this up to just the posts regarding the actual programs?

yeah sorry for ****ing up your thread, wasn't my intentions, i was actually trying to give you a suggestion but it got out of hand, if someone want to delete all the BS they are welcome to, considering with all the math we used to prove something very simple and stupid we still came to the conclusion it doesn't really matter in the end.

btw how do you like those SE's are far as sound quality? obviously they are loud by your Termlab score, 144.9 is impressive for 1500w, out of curiosity do you remember what frequency that was at? how is their lower frequency response

Ugh, I don't mind really, just a few people PM'd me about the programs, and I told them to keep an eye on the thread for updates... Kinda annoying looking through 3 ( 4 soon) pages of bashing/flaming/shit talking thats completely unnecessary

Audioholic are you honestly agreeing with him now?

Or just want the arguing to stop

fvck i shouldve just used imageshack...1 sec...

UGHH thats what me and audioholic were talking about, use a drawing with much less linear movement

once the excursion exceeds the height of the cone itself then YES they are equal, but the point was that the excursion will rarely ever exceed the height of the cone, in which case the cone displaces more area

btw how do you like those MJ's sealed?

im stuck with my truck right now, i want to go 3 way active up front thats a def, but im debating on 2 12's ported (hence why i asked about the SE's) or i really want to do 2 MJ's sealed but i've heard good and bad things about their output and low end response

Yes, but as we all know, there's alot more to getting loud than cone area and xmax, this is just a general calculator for those not wanting to play around with a calculator for 10 minutes.

i just try to remember the "general" ones i posted earlier, they aren't exact but they are close enough to do a 10's vs 12's vs whatever quick comparo in my head

You are a ****ing moron and have no idea what you are talking about... period..

Thread save is probably too late but I'll try anyway...
