TC Sounds VMP 12" Passive Radiator with Proto Box

Item(s) Description/Condition:

Hi

I have a TC Sounds VMP 12" Passive Radiator that comes in a 2.2cf 12" box with a Neutrik Speakon 4 terminal connector, steel washers, rubber washers and nut. (box is local only, I will ship the PR assy only)

This is the Proto assy and box that TC Sounds used when making and testing their VMP PR's. (the box looks well made, has an interanl brace and comes with mounting hardware) The only difference between this and the production units is the production units have a different collar and a cross pin. (they function exactly the same)

I had an ID iDMAX 12" in this spec box with the PR empty, no washers or nut and it was tuned to right at 30hz. (it sounded great and had lots of output from a Towncar trunk on a 9.0)

Here is a link to PE that has info on the TC PR's:

The VMP set up and box ready to plug and play - $90 OBO local

Please let me know, I may be interested in a local trade as well. (no speakers though, anything else good quality)

;7479109']How exactly do passive radiators work? are they the same as making a ported box? without the port?

Yep, exactly

The PR is the port, it moves back and forth and you tune it by adding or removing mass just like making a port longer or shorter.

Pro's: no port noise at all, smaller box, very easy to tune in mins

Con's: there a notch at the FS of the passive so it's a couple DB down there but it's usually accepted for the pros, you need a min of extra cone area usually 2x driver area or at least 30% more ex in the passive, they can induce mechanical movement

I like them but just like anything there are trade-offs both ways.
