Posted June 6, 200520 yr since I own a scion, I frequesnt the scion bbs. Well, this guy (works for or at eDesigns) is putting 32 7.5" eDesigns woofers in the back of his TC. I guess the project just started today...but here are some pics he posted....This reminda me of the Bose 901 series home speakers...any thoughts on this set up? I imagine it would get pretty loud. aside from being overly rediculous..what are the advantages of using 32 7.5" woofers, as opposed to 2-12's..?...hhhmmmm....maybe I could do, like 16 rl-i 8's in my scion....hmm....
June 6, 200520 yr Comes down to cone area. I rode in a car with a wall of 6" JL's, probably 24 or so that hurt me. While one may not go so low it is still trying to produce that bottom octave, a pair and you may hear it, couple 36 drivers together and with the effective cone area, they will go to the bottom octive and pound ya in the midbas region as well. Way back in the 80's Car Stereo Review did an article with a car that had a wall of 4's, does anyone else remember that? Lord, I am really dating myself here. I tried something to that effect with an 87 Isuzu P'Up but lack of budget and knowledge fizzled out that project quick. But your comment on the 901's brought it all back as those were the drivers I was going to use. They use the same theory on coupling small drivers, with the right sized port(s) to bring you an incredible dynamic stage that goes down deep and surrounds you with imaging that won't quit..
June 6, 200520 yr a local shop here did a wall of 25 5.25" focal subs..got loud and low..personally, i think that will look silly. it's more impressive to be loud with one sub then with 32..wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
June 6, 200520 yr Admin I would bring up cancelation or proper enclosure size per driver, but I dont want to get into that can of worms
June 6, 200520 yr I would bring up cancelation or proper enclosure size per driver, but I dont want to get into that can of worms<{POST_SNAPBACK}>mos def...but it does look pretty cool...
June 7, 200520 yr If it were RL-i's then it would be sweetBut eDmo subs...pfftt !I wonder how much that little project is going to cost
June 7, 200520 yr Author well, dude works for eD, and those woofs are still in develop. stage..so, I'd guess 'freebie'....
June 7, 200520 yr Admin if it is for show then cool, but if it is for competition then umm well we shall see wont we, anyway a quartet of RL-i 8s in a VW R32 would be fun stuff
June 7, 200520 yr A quartlet of Rl-i 8's in any vehicle would be fun stuff.i wonder how many zip ties he used...
June 7, 200520 yr He could just buy idv3 8's and save time. Gonna practically be the same damn woofer. I shouldnt say that I dont know what im talking about It does look cool though.eD may have someitng nice coming up but i doubt it and if they did I still dont care.It wont be as good as Loyds wall of 8's.
June 7, 200520 yr Admin oh yeah ID8s would be sexy too, still I would feel muc more comfortable buying from ID than from eD
June 7, 200520 yr ID is still the build house for the new eD's right? Or was that their older line, im pretty sure its this one though.
