Having the box divided for the subs or having them ran all off one amp has nothing to do with cancellation.

Wow it's ridiculous how some people can't do basic math. http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=28729 http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=28701

Did you blow it by frying the voice coil or mechanically damaging it? I can't imagine the prefab Kicker box being tuned below 40 hz, which means it would be very easy to bottom out the sub. The SSD isn't likely to fare any better if you don't change something or other.

Link to this home wrecker box? How cheap is cheap? How about a Tempest-X?

It's ghetto is a disadvantage. There are no advantages. As long as 8 gauge wire is sufficient for the power draw of the amp it's ok.

Boring day. It's windy as crap outside or else I'd go fishing this evening. Not sure what to do with myself...

We're not going to help you with goals like that. We don't think public menaces are cool.

I think you may be confused. Where the magnet is doesn't make that the box. So inverting the sub doesn't make the whole trunk the box. Generally there is no difference in sound.

What size sub? 10"? If you can find a 3" aero, that may work.

I use the modeling program winISD. You can easily manipulate the port, enclosure size, etc., to see how the port dimensions and tuning change.

Cali, you sure were busy reporting posts yesterday, haha.

Just make sure that thing gets parked in a garage every night. Stickers are like the smell of blood to thieves.

haha!

I mean more minute phasing issues, like maybe 5 degrees of difference. I would assume from the signal getting to one sub then having to travel another length of wire to the other sub.

Well do the math. 5" x 10" port opening is 50 sq. inches. 3.5" x 11.5" is 40.25 sq. inches.

Please attempt to use punctuation next time. Please don't drag up year-old threads, either. You have to contact one of their dealers. http://www.ascendantaudio.com/contact.php

It depends entirely on the size of the box, which you didn't tell us. But lowering the port area, as you did, lowers the tune. For example, in a 4 cubic foot box, it lowers the tune from 38 to 34.5 hz.

And you don't like them? Granted they aren't performance-based tires, more for comfortable cruising.

I don't know how much this'll help you, but I tore my calf muscle a few years ago (actually a moron did it to me). I'm trying to remember exactly how long I was away from basketball for. I can't recall for sure, but I know it was at least a month, maybe 5-6 weeks. I'm not sure how bad the tear was either, though, as I never had it scoped or had surgery or anything.

SPL is not all about stuffing tons of equipment in a vehicle. thank you !! You're welcome.

Well I don't know that I'd say that, I doubt your (or my) ears are more sensitive to clipping than an o-scope. But in the absence of the scope I trust my ears pretty well. Maybe not for clipping specifically, bust just that something is amiss. Whether it be clipping, straight overpowering, or distortion of one kind or another.

I think there is a phasing issue with wiring subs in series. At least I've read that it's better to wire voice coils in series and the subs in parallel than to do the opposite. Not sure if it would matter in your scenario or not. Somewhat easy to test, though.

In the middle of another three day weekend because I got my work hours in early this week while I was out of town drilling and collecting groundwater samples. This is nice. Third weekend in a row. And the hot intern from last summer just got a job in my unit after graduating last month. She starts Monday. I think there were only two people that applied for the position, her and a dude. The dude brought his mom to the interview (not sure if she went into the conference room for it, might have just sat outside). So I'm not surprised they didn't pick him.

My guess is that your L7s were tuned to like 42 hz so they would play really loud in the 50 hz range. But the Nightshade is in a better box and plays the lower notes better and is not so peaky.

I LOL'd so hard it hurt... http://www.fashionista.com/2009/06/would_y...the_spermin.php now that's amazing, time to go find some dumb gullible whore I have one you can use. I routinely moisturize her face for her. Well, I apply, and let her rub it in. A few years ago on that show "Loveline" on MTV, a lady called in and said her man busted it on her face but she left it on there for a while, and after it dried a little a lot of her wrinkles had gone away. She was asking if this was safe to do on a regular basis. haha.
