PWK design for dd 9512.. build it or scrap it

[Annnarbor84 5,000+ posts]

Who cares, honestly, if you're really concerned that it may be the issue, ask for pics of it, and ask the builder if that could perhaps be the problem...and if it comes down to it, and you offer a refund for that 1 in god knows how many designs that comes back at you, so what?
I'd rather have a happy (or at least satisfied with my handling of the situation) customer than an extra 10-20 bucks in my pocket.

I understand what you are saying and maybe once in awhile offering a refund would not be so bad. But the bottom line with anybody who designs enclosures is that you cannot be liable for the purchaser's lack of skills, tools, whatever the case may be. Just my opinion anyways

same thing happened with both my pwk designs. boxes too big, but got loud. my xxx tore 2 tinsels from overexcursion, and my 9518g burned up the tinsels inside the spiders twice. i asked dd what was causing this with no damage at all to the voice coil, and they said overexcursion.

with my last box, i just asked for help on here.

One thing I have not heard mentioned yet is the fact that. If I were to design someone an enclosure, and they did not build to spec or the craftsmanship was shit, then it is their fault not mine. Unless I build it for them, I cannot guarantee they are going to build it right Nothing is free:fyi:

well take a look for yourself... i dont do shitty work..

Not saying you do. What i am saying is the designer has no control on the builder, in your case the build looks good. I have one design by him, and he built it. Never had any of his designs or anything like that

The design doesnt look like anything to complicated. So I dont see why it wouldnt work

well the above box is the second pwk i built it, it was a pain in the *** tore out the spiders overexcursion like a *****. it either was weak or overexcursion, i set the subsonic where pete had told me too we went over everything the design was ....FAIL. it was ran off a kicker 1500.1 now off an aq2200 in 2.5 cubes 35 hz it does just as well , doesnt get down like the pwk but the woofer also is still working !

I've actually seen PWK's design and build work, and it's SICK.

I highly doubt that his design made your HDCC sound like ***. It was probably your inadequacies building it. He knows his shit.

when you get off petes ****.. read the mother f@#$ing thread!!! many others had the same problem, and theres pics above of the box . i checked that box many times its exactly what was on the blueprints.

Be stupid not to build it after you paid for the design... I've had two designs by him in the past, first turned out to be awesome, second not so much

no control over sub at high volumes. Sounded good till you turned it up... blew my HD3 (overexcursion)

That's why I won't buy another nor tell someone to buy a design from him. He knew I was unhappy and having problems with mine, never offered a refund or another design or anything. Basically told me the same thing he told the OP.

R U a nut ryder? No srsly, I have seen some of his "SICK" work also. Not saying he doesn't know what he's doing. He just doesn't give a shiyt if it works for you or no after you build it. Some of his designs are awesome, some just don't work like he wants them to.

OP... I say build it.

just because this pole smoker saw his "sick" work in a setup doesnt mean its all the shit. pwk just needs to stand behind his designs a lil better. thats bad business, you have an unhappy customer , and your response is..well you can buy another. if you purchase somthing that doesnt work, who the hell would buy another?

but yea .....thats what ill do build it, throw it in my truck see how it does. if it does the job ill finish it off in vinyl and carpet. if not ill only be out my time and wood, materials, plus the 50 bucks is already spent so whats another 35 bucks down the drain lol.

by the way, the amp that tore up my 9518g was a kicker kx2500.1 @ 1 ohm with the gains set for 2800 watts with a mm, so i wasnt sending it retarded power or anything.

Dude, the problem is that you built it upside-down!

I bet if you had built it right-side up it would have worked perfectly!
