    This is just something i have been wondering since i found out how a ported box works. I know that IB separates the front wave from the back. And I know that a port acts somewhat like another speaker above and at tuning. But what if you were to build a ported box, and seal off the port from the front wave entirely. like, the woofers face forward, and the port faces the trunk but you seal off the baffle from the trunk entirely. I googled it, but came up with nothing.
  2. Where could i rent a tablesaw (menards, lowes, ace?) i tried home depot, but they only have a compound mitre saw. I was wondering, can you stain mdf?
  3. I hope those are BTLs. And those amps probably wont put out 5200wrms (combined)
  4. I listen to alot of chopped and screwed music. Any particular brand you like?
  5. I recently found my Visonik 12" woofer and i decided to build a box for it. I have ~$120 for supplies so nothing elaborate. My plan is a little under 4cuft (before displacement) tuned at ~26hz. I would like to use aero ports. The woofer is rated at 250rms, but handled 400rms from my RF200.2 like a champ. I have ~140wrms of clean power to play with, from my HT amp (Samsung HT in a box, very nice system for $220, on sale) I am switching it out for the current woofer, the 8" that is currently in the corner. My parents always turn the sub level way down when they watch movies (frustrating lol) So its mostly for my chopped and screwed music, that i can't fit on my iPod shuffle. I am using 3/4" mdf and the dimensions are 2'x2'x1' How many of what size aero ports do i need? I can't figure it out, and it takes too long to enter all the info on my Wii. Does anyone know of where i could go to get these peices cut for me, in the event i cannot locate a tablesaw/router? So far i know to pre-drill holes in the mdf. I will be gluing and screwing the pieces together, and then clamping the pieces while they dry. I am buying full-thread drywall screws, liquid nails for wood, maybe some paint. I also found my trim ring I am getting excited, can't wait to hear it.
  6. Capacitor = Fail Caps are not beneficial. Get another battery.
  7. How much rms for what? To make sound? One watt should be sufficient. No such thing as underpowering.
  8. Do you plan on getting another BTL in the future? For one BTL you could get the D2. Then say you get a sundown amp, you can run it at one ohm and if you decide to upgrade, strap two sundowns together, for 4krms @ 2ohm (if you use the SAZ-2000D for example). It works out both ways. What amps do you have now? But if you must stick to what you have already, i would go for the D2. Remember, there is no such thing as underpowering.
  9. What is that supposed to mean. If you put the speaker in the box it will work. Do you mean, youre not sure if it will be loud enough? Not wanting to build another box if its not right? Why not? Thats part of testing. Everyone does that at one point or another. Lol
  10. Gotta ask, Where are you from??? x2 Try Google for a translator from your native language to English Copy and paste here
  11. SpeakerBoy replied to B-Rich's topic in Fi Technical
    More details. We don't know your music preferences, max dimensions to work with, electrical/charging, or amplfier(s).
  12. Depends.
  13. Nifty! I hate the fact that i never have money.... It's whatever though Rms?
  14. x2 Do i smell a build log?
  15. I wouldnt get it, but to each its own. Yeah the sub can be tuned to 32hz with a higher Fs of 35.5, why not get another FI SSD or a BL with BP Power. I dont understand why you would want to go from FI to Hifonics, seems kinda backwards to me.
  16. Nice box I need to practice my box building skills
  17. CCR - Down on the corner and CCR - Up around the bend
  18. Good point. (same brand).
  19. Forget to Remember - Mudvayne
  20. I think he means have the alt power the amp directly w/out the battery. Surely not for practical use though?
  21. We all make mistakes.... Nothing should have been damaged, unless you were beating on them extra hard (clipping) with it wired wrong, trying to compensate.
  22. Just labels based on post count and time as a member. Oh i meant, like could you name them all. Could you just pm it to me? Finding it in the 'Hop on my Wii is gonna be a biznitch (point and click is only fun for so long).
