sounds good, but try to get a diagram too, makes it easier to figure out the wiring

i decided to go look for my first after is saw this, here it is

so a 3 dollar switch or over 200 for new deck? what I would do is wire up a relay so it would turn on and off when your car is turned on and off. I use one in my car to turn on fans for my amps, you can get them from parts express. http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.c...tnumber=330-073 and you should get this diagram too, is free and it helps alot: http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.c...tnumber=500-001 edit. youll need a power, ground, and ignition wires run to the relay, you can just splice into the ones you have runnin to your deck,

i was readin more on the quarterwave site again, and it was sayin that for a trans line the cross area needs to be 2x the sd of the woofer, but i thought it needed to be 1x the sd.?

from what i thought happens, one wave is pushed between the two boxes and comes out the center of the inner box, while the other wave comes out the center box without goin inside the box, its length is 1/4 45 hz wavelength. I tryed to get it like the box on here, http://www.cowanaudio.com/th.html , except mine is like havin 4 of them put together. That website makes it look like it is just a tapered quarter wave. *edit* You might find http://www.quarter-wave.com/ interesting. If you are interested in poking around more about different styles of enclosures go poke around www.diyaudio.com/forums, some quite interesting stuff is logged over there. yea, i like the quarterwave site, i found it a few months ago and was up till about 3 am readin up on it.

yea i use them on my rear deck in my car for midrange, but what i was askin is what does Fs mean.

huh? my guy is 18...? and i am the only one in my neighborhood that is any good with this stuff how are you good at it if youve never even built one yet, all youve do is that back pack right? and you seem to have alot of different threads with alot of different stories.,.. if you have a question, just ask the question, dont make up a pointless story behind them, cuz thats how it seems, imo

where is a 14 year old gettin all these cars, and why does everyone you know want a 14 year old to install their system?

was that cable flexible. there is a lowes down here with some 1/0 for around 2.50 a foot, but i couldnt even bend their 4 gauge.

I ordered some of the E8's from the pre order, how hard would it be to add a small T to that order?

where do you get good 1/0 guage for less than 2 bucks a foot

No, all ive seen is one sub with, but i wanted to try 4 together to see how it would work, and i thought it would look nice, but doin it this way was alot more math. its been gettin pretty loud, especially for the pos woofers, but if i listen to it up close near the opening, there is alot of air flow noise, but about 5 feet away it sounds great. right now i have it layed on its side next to a wall and it fills up most of house with sound. but these little woofers have a low frequency of like 35 hz they dont get the low lows, that gives me a new question. wats is the Fs of the sub, this ones Fs is 55 and it freq range is 35-5000.

Two dual 1 ohm subs. wire each subs coils in series so you have two 2 ohms loads, wire those in parallel to give you one 1 ohm load

a little. but i did do learn a little about them first, and had to do alot of math on how i thought these designs worked, but idk how one for 4 8" subs would have to be much bigger than this, the height should stay the same, but the width would be wider, the Xarea of the 7" woofers is 86.6 sq in and for the 8"s its 111 sq in.

from what i thought happens, one wave is pushed between the two boxes and comes out the center of the inner box, while the other wave comes out the center box without goin inside the box, its length is 1/4 45 hz wavelength. I tryed to get it like the box on here, http://www.cowanaudio.com/th.html , except mine is like havin 4 of them put together.

where all the woofers are. is that not right?

thanks, if this enclosure works out really well I'm goin to make another one for 4 of the sundown E8 subs I'm thinking about some E8's as well, for midbass. Im goin to use one for that too, ive already got an enclosure built that goes behind my center console

thanks, if this enclosure works out really well I'm goin to make another one for 4 of the sundown E8 subs

ok now its fixed. when i edited the code i put for it to be a thumbnail

Make them bigger! how

OK, i fixed it. i had to edit part of the url inside the command

thats what I did, i just made a photobucket account, then used that url between the code, is that the only way to do it?

anyone know how to add pictures. because i guess i did it wrong

I've been looking into transmission line and tapped horn enclosure for a while, but still dont know a whole lot. here is my attempt at a tapped horn design with 4 7in goldwood woofers($12 each). I have it all put together right now and it sounds really good, but its too late to turn it up real loud so that will wait till mornin. I'm not finished with the build yet though, but i was close to finishin so i decided to see how it sounded so far. If anyone knows more about the designs, and sees if I'm doin anythin wrong, I'm listenin for advice. the outside the inside bottom piece wired up to see how it sounds. 4 8 ohms woofers wired to a single 8 ohm load, gettin about 250 watts from my plate amp

LOL Forgot to mention the 250k miles it has on it too on top of that 13 years. Ran like a champ! I thought my car was high, i have a 95 accord with 235K miles. Did you check the voltage at the battery with the car on and off? a low voltage with the car on would make it more of a chance its the alt
