Anyone here try to build their own one of these? I want to try, but can't find any type of references to how to figure it's design to your sub.

By snail shell do you mean folded horn ? Or do you mean clam shell isobaric ? I have fooled around with both styles. The isobaric is a piece of cake. Folded horn on the other hand can be a b!tch. I'll see if I can find ya a link I remember seeing one somewhere. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Not the iso, but the type on here..... http://www.powered4sound.com/store.html ......using the parameters of your sub, how would you figure the port and the airspace needed to design this?

 

I have 4 - 10's just laying around and would like to try to make a box like this to surprise people when I get bored. I was looking at the video of this box with the 2- 61/2" subs and I want to try it.... http://www.shrapner.1337gamer.com/speakerporn/audiobahn6.5.wmv .

They boast mediocre numbers with low power...what I don't understand is why they haven't faced the sensor with high power, if they want to prove anything...

I didn't ask if you liked them. I do not plan on competeing with them or setting any World Records. I just wanted to make one for a 10 to try it out. Might like the sound of it, you don't know.

 

All they are is a form of Transmission Line enclosures, but I didn't know if they modeled them that way or modeled them ported. Their's seems to be smaller, but the 6 1/2's played good. Thats what I wanted to do, have 1 - 10" sub and compare it to my 2 - 15"s that are going in dual reflex ported boxes, (ABC).

You are the one that doesn't know diddly squat about a speaker, and you come here telling me I know nothing?

OK no fighting. Now //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cuddle.gif.bd1b29c179c0482f8313dbd790b74c94.gif

:hilarious

I have my design already and I'll try to get it done on Monday.

BTW: P4S won't give you a design...

And chances are, it won't sound all that great, unless you personally know the implementations behind the design...

Lol, compare a 10 to two 15s? I dont care what 10 inch that is, it won't compare to any dual 15 configuration.
