at what note were each sub peaking at?
very good question. i don't remember. j/k. the id sub peaked the lowest @47hz, followed by the sx @49hz, and finally the type r @50hz. my 8x re8s peaks @49hz or 50hz depending on the day.
Looking forward to the ported box testing and more complete results //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
i went to the shop today with the intentions of furthering this testing...but got side tracked. i played around with a box that can't fit any of the above metioned subs due to their mouting depths. it was ~2.4cuft(before sub displacements) tuned to 35hz with a measly 24sq inch port. i now know:
8x re8s in sealed box: 146.9@50hz ~1000 watts total
3x jl 10w3s ported: 143.2@47hz ~900 watts total
2x " " " " " : 140.8@47hz ~500 " " " "
1x " " " " " : 138.5@49hz ~200 watts
1x re12 in ported box: 140.0@46hz ~500watts
2x " " " " " : 146.7@49hz ~1000watts
i didn't get to do too much testing with the re12s with that much power because i was smelling frying coils after first burp. this test really can't be taken too seriously because of the large variations in power that each driver was taking...it just seamed like something fun to do at the time
i will try to borrow a ported box all week long to do some more testing or my initial three subs, but, if i can't borrow one, i'll have to wait until next weekend to build one.
