[QUOTE="TaylorFade, post: 6684156, member: 618111"] I know that nobody does Isobaric builds anymore, but I've always wanted to try one and since I have decided to go with 10's, I have e8's that I am gonna try some different designs with. The iso was up first because it's the smallest box and I could do it with the scrap wood I have laying around. As far as the sound... it actually sounded pretty good, but holy port noise. 2" was as big as I could go without having to go external. Really solid lows but not exactly an SPL box. Tried it firing through my pass and it didnt' work. Corner loading sounded the best. Love the fact that the box is so small, but I just need more. Now I know why no one does iso's anymore. Don't know if it's normal but there was a lot of "chuffing" from the inverted sub. It also might have sounded a little better if I took more than half an hour to build it and actually used sealant instead of duct tape, even though there wasn't any air leaks. Anyway, (2) Sundown e8's in .3cf and tuned to 32hz... [IMG]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2720/4309242409_52a4474d53.jpg[/IMG] Up next, t-line tube... if I can figure out how to fit 8ft of tube in the trunk.
