I have 10 4 ohm drivers on the way. I really don't know what I'm gonna do, maybe run a few of em, but I hopefully can sell them on craigslist for $20 a pop and include an enclosure for em.

3cf @ 30hz //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Looks nice man. The one i'm about to make is of the same exact design just a different size. I was thinking about doing 2.5 cubes before port displacement. I was going to make the face that had the port face wider since it will be a down firing HT sub.

Here is a question. Is a 2.5 cube box tuned to 30hz much different than a 3 cube box tuned to 30hz as long as they are in the spec range for the woofer? How will the two differ from each other?

I barely resisted buying some of these. I'm so proud.

On the other hand, I turned around and bought an expensive bunch of home theatre shit instead :doh:

what did you put them in

The ported box i made.

I would have thrown it in the van but by the time i got to work and got the box sealed up it was dark and Im not friends with the neighbors. Tomorrow ill throw these in the van and make a vid with a verdict.

When i did try them in the garage my psp batt died so i had to run it off the radio (durabrand deal) and with the staticy signal i got it sounded good sq wise and made some noise(rattled stuff on the walls, hard to hold a conversation over).

I didnt really have much port noise being the fact the subs have such little xmax to them.

Its off to bed for me. Expect a verdict tomorrow around 4-5 PM. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
