kryptonitewhite's project in progress
kryptonitewhite replied to kryptonitewhite's topic in General Audio
excellent question! I seriousely considered it, but the aiming/angling process was the biggest problem, especially being my first time doing so, and I found it quite expensive during a different build. BUT, I may still sand down the current enclosure, apply some releasing agent, and make a mould of it. -
Think about the pair of 18s I'm going to be using this on. what 18's are you gonna knock the hell out of with that. I assume you're running @ 14.4ish?

newbie to this forum, not seeing a "support" area

oh so much better! Thanks guys! -
I love what youre doing, I'm in the same...I'm no SQ pro, but I'm doing a 3 way active front stage and tried to incorperate aiming and such.

damn, I was hoping to get away with it...I have yet to add a third layer of rings, more bondo, then I'll be putting firewall over that, then finally sludge. The whole interior will be coated like that....everything will be wood filled behind with foam, then bondo'd, then firewall, then sludge...so the whole cabin will be rigid, air tight, and dampened. and Im not known for my finess...just functionality -

thanks, for now it will be mostly old pics, with this south dakota weather, and since I blew the motor on the Hyundai, progress is slow...but it gives me time to save. I work for a company making credit cards..maybe I should make myself one with a million max eh? That'd speed things up nicely. -

yeah, I got a sweet deal on the red tops though...so I hope with all that bank with a cpl HO alts, Ill get buy. I hope the aiming and everything is right, cuz there's no fixing and adjusting it...I could use more ring spacers I suppose to tweak the aiming, but I hope its right on as is. I suppose I can skip the almost automatic reverseing the polarity on the far tweet? I am all about the LSQ! I enjoy watchin the SPL burps as much as anyone, and I'd love to sit in some seriouse SQ seats some day, but for me, I want to have great sound whether I'm sitting in the driveway with my eyes closed drooling, or I'm blowin off steam and showin off with the knob cranked (not in residential areas of course) -

stuffing, note separate chamber for 4.5's sealed off with tweeter from 6.5's i wish i had more airspace for the front stage, I wanted to port the 6.5's at 40Hz (crossover low point 50Hz) but not nearly enough, so sealed, damped, and "see's" more air. mach wall to get ideas/spacing. My biggest wall influence is obviousely Pete "HexiBase" Kuliki, with his dual 15" Ava's in a folded rear horn. I can't touch his mathmatic skills, so i'm simply ported with a lot of airspace and low tuning...cuz i love 20HURTZ. never use bondo in large doeses over large areas...it will crack. But here's the most worked on area, most expensive area, so far NO airleaks anywhere when I'm done. This will yield the most dB out of everything...air pressure. -

I wish more people would share the step by steps...I love Steve meade, cuz not only is he a top notch builder I look up to, he SHARES. SPL'ers in general (not hating, I understand!) hate to give "trade secrets", but that's what we're here to do...share! I'm glad you find my sloppy looking work interesting..and rest assured, it is solid, just ugly. A friend had a program to make the cartoonish look..I wish I could have gotten it from her. yeah, heather's my daughter...and beautiful she is, thanks. Take your daughter out there, she'll love spendin time with daddy no matter what you do, but she'll grow up just like you, showin the boys how it's done -

I originally had 2 Ascendant Audio Avalanche 15's, and I tried to buy HexiBase's 2 XX-Colossus...but only got 1, so i resold the amp, and lost out on the subs in a bad recone situation. my most recent pic of the front stage/dash board...bondo'ed. I'm NOT sanding it smooth, I'm adding Firewall first, then Sludge, and making that ROUGH and unpainted (ugly) too in the name of SQ. Ever seen an anechoic chamber? http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&a...nechoic+chamber driver side passenger makin MDF rings speaker cutouts first rings for 4 6.5's (god I love midbass) FR125S rings and Vifa's too -

Anyone have any links? Thanks.

It's been down for at least a few days. I've been checking here to see if this was news, or if they closed it down since they sell outside their site now. Apparently it's news.

I finally got to cutting out the speaker holes, this is just the skeleton...I will be making 3/4" MDF rings and sloping them out and much more. 4 Adire Audio Extremis 6.4 run off Kicker KX850.4 __ 50Hz-450Hz 2Adire Audio FR125S 4.5" full rangers of a KX350.4 __ 450Hz-3.5kHz 2 Vifa XT25TG30 1" Ring Radiator tweets off a KX200.2 __ 3.5kHz on up 2 Audio Control 6XS for 24dB with 2 bandpassed....
