Yep, let's see what you can do on the box, I'll see what I can do on the install.

Just a note to everyone. These WILL be metered! At close to their RMS if both will fit, and then with close to 1,000rms to the two for a final frying.

design is complete... its in metric, like I said it would be...

rear compression chamber is meant to be 7 litres, but it ended up 16, so you'll have to displace some volume in that with MDF, or bottles of water, then you can adjust the volume, to get it as loud as possible //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I think there's enough room in the rear compression chamber for the 6.5inch woofers to mount...

if not... not my problem... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif lol

I'll post the design now //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif hehe

no dimensions on the diagram, at the moment, as it gets too confusing, I'll talk to you again on msn sometime, and send you a few diagrams, with different dimensions and stuff... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I was working in metric, so the numbers will be odd in imperial, but its 39.76inches wide, 25.59inches deep and 15.75inches high //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif which are all slightly under your max dimensions, so thats good... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

the horn mouth area is about 10inches X 14inches... about 7.5 times the area of the woofers cone... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif (thats per side by the way)

Good luck on this one, it looks interesting.

it depends on the woofer, now doesn't it....

unless I have the woofer here, I can't exactly measure it, now can I?

but the design will fit a 6.5inch woofer I have here, with a few dimensions, like magnet diameter and mounting depth rounded up by a 1/3rd inch or so...

so, I dont see why the desired woofer wont fit...

 

[saywhat? 5,000+ posts]

Maybe im a genious or something, but I ALWAYS can find the woofer depth.

and the magnet diameter?

there are numbers listed on PE, but they mean nothing to me... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

if they mean nothing to you, you know nothing. all there is to it. if its 6 inches deep, its 6 inches deep NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT IT.

yeha, and if it says:

Dimensions: A: 6-7/8", B: 6-1/8", C: 5-7/8".

it means nothing, now does it!!! the smallest number there is 5-7/8 and I'm guessing thats the cutout, because its way to big to be the mounting depth, so, if you dont know what you're talking about, then dont say anything at all thanks.
