how odd that i have this page bookmarked

yea, i just found that... lol

We should get ahold of Adire and have them design us a subwoofer.  The SSA Special. 

What do I want?  A high efficiency (~95db/w/m), high excursion (25-28mm), low inductance (<1.25mH), mid Q (.35-.45), moderatley low Fs (<27hz), 18" subwoofer for IB use that'll work off of 500w or less for under $300.  Basically a higher excursion IDW18 with a few tweaks. 

Anybody in with me?!?

I haven't played with it to see how "realistic" this woofer is....but it sure sounds fun :D

:ohsnap:

Heard back from Adire......this is what they said they could do:

Fs: 22 Hz

Qms: 5.2

Qes: 0.42

Qts: 0.39

Vas: 670 liters

Sd: 1180 cm^2

Xmax: 28mm one way

SPL: 94.1 dB @ 1W, 1m

Re: 3.9 Ohms

Le: 1.5 mH

BL: 14 N/A

Mms: 152 grams

Cms: 0.35 mm/N

With a price tag of around $250 each for an order of 12 :woot:

Le came in a *little* high, but .25mH I ain't going to complain about :P Efficiency was only down .9db from what I was hoping.

Damn!! If I can find (atleast) 11 other people, I just might gosh darned do this!

Interesting, to say the least. OT: I love the way that they (Dan & Co.) plan drivers. VD would be proud, lol. Though, DW > VD far as i know. sorry. i'm loopy today. sick.

uhhh... Even IB, I dont have 23 cu. ft.

Do You know VC specs? (guage, dia., winding length, dual/single)?

and were those the estimated grpahs above?

I might be in for one.

I also think that I'll trash the conversations that I've had with Thilo.. that unloving bastard.

Actually yes, I do:

we'll use our 44 Magnum motor, 44mm thick top plate, XBL^2,

3" diameter voice coil, 180mm diameter magnets. It uses a 4 layer, copper clad aluminum wire, 3" diameter voice coil.

22 AWG wire, with a winding length of 33.5mm. Single 4ohm nominal coil.

And yes, the driver isn't built yet....so those would have to be estimated graphs.

And yeah....true IB would take some room. Toss one in a trunk and it will probably have some affect on the driver in an acoustic suspension sense......but not much.

And yes....so far Adire is great to deal with. Very friendly and extremely prompt response!

hmm maybe adire could make a sub for me, i'm looking for a 10" with an effeciency of around 100-110 1w 1m, power handling in the 6k rms range :-D ohhh and maybe 40-50mm xmax

Squeak, I wish I still had my 68 Galaxy Fastback. Huge rear deck held 3 15's when I owned it, ran them sealed firing into the car but they went the way of a car audio thief while the car was being serviced no less. A pair of what you are brewing would be awesome IB in the rear deck...

I would love one, but currently have no space for 18". Thought about in wall home theatre sub though. Would be cool in a new build house as you could reinforce that section of the wall. A bit of a pain in a remodel.

No drinking.

Heh. I enjoyed it, did you steve?

NG

roffle, Noah made me do it. :P

Thats my alibi.

Goddy Mike locked the 5 hottest women thread.... :(

I sent him a PM, hopefully he will unlock it.

He did it for a reason.

no nips or lips, kids couldnt follow the rules

He locked it cause of me, or atleast I was the last to post and get posts deleted.

My pics were 99% in the TOS the other 1% was on the line with wet t-shirts and 1 that was probly 1/16 of a nipple, I dont care that he deleted them, they were not porn, but locking it was not a good thing IMO. Oh and I did NOT post any lips ;)

well i sent you a pm w/ the 8 or 9 pics you posted that were out of line....there were 2 or 3 that were border line and then about 5 that were full blown nips....and i locked it cause i've given you guys that post in there several opportunities to keep it clean....its not that terribly hard to not post nudity.....whether you think its nudity or not is not the point.....and i had to delete about 4 or 5 more posts you made in there today.....not sure who opened it back up.....but i hope you dont ruin things for everyone.......

I will open the PM up when I get home. I cant at work.

Since when it a wet t-shirt consitered "out of line"? I will look, but only 1 was out of line IMO. As far as lastnights posts...there was 2 wet t-shirts and 2 body paint. Those had better be the only ones deleted. I made sure I remembered everything I posted and put them in individual posts.

Lastly, I will not "ruin things" for anyone. I dont see why you take it upon yourself to only moderate the 5 hottest women thread and any post that Phat makes. I am not going to turn this into a CA.com drama, but I would like to tell you from not only my point of view but others, you didnt earn your modship...and others are getting pissy that you are trying to be a hard core mod. Seriously, lighten up, its the internet. There are far worse things on CA.com then an occastional wet t-shirt and or 1/16 of a nipple.

a wet tshirt contest crosses the line when the nipples are clearly visible....well i dont touch any of phat posts cause he has a pissy fit and causes all kinds of drama any time i touch anything of his that violates tos....and i moderate the entire lounge seeing as thats where i have powers at.....im the only one that seems to care whether or not nudity is on the forum or not.....im not the only one that feels this way either....and i've never cared what other peolpe thought.....im a mod in the lounge....plain and simple.....if everyone has a problem w/ it they should take it up w/ goob....anyways...enough ca.com drama.....back to work i go....

Whatever you say, you have the mod powers...

I did not know that you were only a lounge mod.

Got one alt done.  To the classifieds it goes!

:woot:

Time to go burn one...

We've had 120 hours (5 days) straight of very dense fog (maybe 100 foot visibility) and it's expected to last at least another day ... Oh the joys of living here ...

In winter, it's either raining, foggy, or freezing ...
