My old sonotube had (2) 6" x 22.5" ports. I'm going to throw a few Tempests into a ported box, same volume as the sonotube, but will be using 8" ports as they're much easier to find and cheaper. I used a basic volume calculator and it comes up with a 8" x 12.75" being the same as the old 6"...
Just built an IB sub, so I have a 480L enclosure that housed 2 Tempests and was tuned to 17Hz. All I did was remove the speakers. Yours for the taking if you're near Beach Park, IL
Heather, Also sent you a PM. I'm keeping the Hypex amp, bought it from Adire and highly recommend it. Do a search on the site as there are some other's out that seem popular.
If anyone is still looking for a Tempest, I do have one more that I was going to keep for another project, but don't have the funds right now, so I've got one more if anyone is interested. Thanks...Mike
I have an Oak KLF-C7 center channel about two years old, used as a rear center, in excellent condition with original box/manual. $300 + shipping, or will deliver to Chicago/Milwaukee area. Thanks...Mike
I have a Tempest I bought last year, put in a box for my car, and it over-powered my other speakers/amp, so I put the Bazooka tube back in. Maybe played for one week, excellent condition. It's still in the box, sitting in my basement. $100, shipping included to anywhere US. Please PM...
I'd go for a nice/big 480L sonosub with dual Tempests and a 500watt plate amp. That's what I built and I've NEVER had a problem filling the house with sound during movies or parties. I have had neighbors 3 houses away call to complain about "their" windows rattling!! Was a LOT of fun to build...
Looks like tongight I'm finally getting out of here at a decent hour, so I plan on going through the e-mails I've received and will send out responses. Thanks for being patient...Mike
Nothing is gone yet as I haven't had time. Been working some terrible TEMP job 12-14 hours a day and get home just in time to go to bed. Doing the same today, so earliest I'll be able to send out responses will be tomorrow night...if we don't have to stay late. Sorry....Mike
Kevin is correct. Sorry I haven't had time, just trying to make it through each day. Hope to have time tonight, and I WILL respond in the order received. Thanks for being patient....Mike
2 Tempests are in a 480L sonosub, the other 3 are still in boxes for an IB I was going to build in the new house, of course I lost the house and the $15K earnest money. 2004 sucks so far :angry:
