What i've been up too... Dual Folded horn done by Toxic Bass for Fattony911

[Death By Bass 10+ year member]

Good to see a different enclosure . I was getting tired of the 6.5" //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

this is old, its the first horn I made, its currently in my bedroom, with a mismatched horn, both with 12inch subs, off a 2 X 750watt PA amp...

but thats beside the point, cos I posted the pic to show that a box with 1/4 the mouth area, and half the horn length isn't going to have the claimed gain...

no, I'm just saying, that from my own experience, and from others, (and from physica itself) that the design seen in this thread is going to give no gain whatsoever.

I think some people here are forgetting that...

that is true, but physics says, that a horn, with only just as much mouth area as the woofer has cone area isn't actually going to gain any output... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

you'd have a hard time finding many people who'd actually call the design posted in this thread a horn, except maybe people who dont know better, and are just repeating what they've been told...

someone was trying to tell me my horn was more like a transmission line... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif lol

id have to agree with Jim as well, as much as I think DBB is a douche when it comes with discussing topics online, he is absolutely right about this one. That box shows little characteristics of a folded horn and more of a t-line than anything else. I also fear alot of port noise and loss of effeciency on the folds, maybe with some fiberglass and resin you could re-gain some of that though. I highly suggest resin anyways throughout the enclosure but that will probably kill your pocket book with the amount of surface area you have.

The box seems solid though, just seems alot of work for what your going to get out of it....we'll see though....the meter never lies //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif
