Wow...you know little about what you speak of //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

SPL compeditors who dont take impeadance rise into account when desiging an SPL enclsoure often pay the price when competition time comes around, a 5-10dB price in some cases.

Now of course this is in extreme cases. A frimd of mine had an L7 12 in a ported enclosure tuned reletively high, the impeadance spike in that car with that enclosure made any beat near tuning about half as loud as 1/2 octave above. which is opposite from what generally happenes.

Tune higher/smaller box...
/thread

wouldnt tune higher + bigger box= more SPL

Fryman...that almost sounds like whats happening in my car....just above and below tuning (as I said earlier in the thread...those few cd's pounded at certine frequ.)

That was ment for the guy who says he doubts IR will do anything

I highly doubt you'll hear THAT big of a difference just because of impedence rise.

for spl = very important

daily driving + music (dynamic) = not important

ok, as far as the box is concerned.....besides having a leak in the box...is there any other reason why the box wouldnt perform...I tried to round all the corners as much as I could with bondo ( i know, not the best way...but better than none right) I blew a 100 amp fuse so I believe that means that Im pushing around 1000 watts to it...didnt sound like it was getting distorted at that point.

You're only giving it 1000 watts!? If so, that's your problem.

Yes.... Bigger box also means flatter impeadance (generally) and more efficent sound reproduction.

Daily Driving Monotone Rap Beats = Very Important //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

no...

all the testing weve done has led to small box = louder...

we ran 4 15" Mt's in 7^3's w/ 50^2's of port...looking at those specs, youde think it wouldnt work.

Umm, well.Hate to burst your bubble but we're not talking about an SPL set-up.We're talking about a daily driver in case you can not read.

Well, didn't you say you weren't pleased with the output?

I also said smaller box btw... which would make the sound more punchy, just like tuning higher would. Basically they would make it sound less sloppy and more punchy which is what you said you were lacking. You would also gain some output.

To the original poster, what amp are you using??

dont worry about it...

we have never once plotted rise...and have never lost..so, i dont think its too detrimental.

Hate to burst YOUR bubble but i was giving extreme casses and agian to burt your other bubble i then gave a daily setup example.

I dont always lsiten to rap, but i bet it is all the original psoter tested with, kcikc drums, bass guitars, all dynamic...no other way to tell. plus he listed artists like young geezy and lil john...

lol
