John, it just came to me, I think what you are talking about with these speaker builders putting the tweeters further back has more to do with higher frequencies transitioning to the far-field further down range than freqs coming from the mids. It sounds interesting, I'll have to look into...
yeah, the doppler effect.......doesn't have anything to do with higher frequencies traveling faster....if they do..... What I was looking to eventually do is play with time correction on the horns for different listening positions. For a long room, I play the Wii game system about 5 feet...
I got it, sound waves in a line array have no special propagation characteristics. I have no problems at all. I got a new head unit for my truck with time correction it made a really big difference, just thinking of something for the house. I could build a crescent moon enclosure to take...
I have some hybrid line arrays, a line of mids matched up with a single compression horn tweeter. I know that the difference in intensity between a line source and point source gets more dramatic the further away you get. Does the rate of propagation change? The speed of sound is still the...
Do you think the hole is big enough. The braces don't go all the way to the back corner, or all the way out to the side corners, but is the hole in the middle big enough, it's about 4.5 inches in diameter, I could cut another one right behind it if necessary. Where the braces need to be for...
yeah, I just looked into that, great deal, but at 4 ohm stereo with my amp it's barely a step up I feel like I am wasting too much time on this, I think I will just build a new box for the daytons and spend the money on a new center channel
right, but a XXX 18 has 34% more displacement, for ~$30 more, which I think would put me right where I want to be, for now...... pluggable ports does sound like a good idea, I guess I could use plumber's fittings on the end, like a 4" pvc pipe with a screw on cap......maybe paint it black...
it all looked good until I saw the Pnom, I guess that's thermal. I'll be driving the sub with a QSC 1450 RMX @ 4 ohms mono, might smoke it after a while. Espeacially with some of the parties around here;) I think I will go ported tuned to ~30Hz, right now those daytons are tuned to about 16...
I'm looking for an 18" supersub or maybe a couple of desent ones for my HT. The 4 12" Dayton DVC's just aren't doing it for me anymore, I need to move some more air. I have been looking at an RE 18" XXX, or maybe a couple of the SX 18's, I will probably go with one of those choices if you guys...
the enclosure in the truck is tuned to the mid/low 20's, because in a small pickup you don't have as much cabin gain as you would in most other cars, I used my little 10" Dayton DVC in a sealed enclosure .707 alignment to find the cabin gain in the truck before I built the box, the response...
well the living room is in the middle of the house, it connects the upstairs to the den, so yeah, there is alot of air there to be moved as far as normal listening levels in the truck, I'd say I keep it under 130 dBs most of the time, it'll do 150's below 30Hz on an AC mic, the best I ever...
Hey, Offering this one up for ideas, I wanna hear your thoughts, and mostly the reasoning behind your suggestion. So, I got this living room, 13 X 16 X 8, it's a little small, but huge compared to what I am used too in an automobile. Anyway, enough with the background, I got a problem...
I'm a big fan of my Jasper jig too, it's the model 200, I have had it for about 2 years now, I've never worried about it breaking, I take care of it. The only bad thing I see about the perfect aluminum from the link is every time you go back to do one size hole you have to measure and set it...
it's a little over 9 cu.ft. internal, I first had it tuned to 20 Hz, before I put the oak panels on, so I played with the port, it should be around 16Hz, haven't taken any measurements, but it sounds like mid to upper teens
it's 4 12" Dayton DVC's off a 1400w QSC amp I've had it for a while, but just got the picture trail account and now I can post pics I just watched "Attack of the Clones", caught the end of it on HBO, from where they were in an arena and had to jump on those crazy animals, from the...
I use a circle cutting jig, and the size bit that the jig is set for, I think it's 1/4 inch, just do the outside diameter first and work your way back in at the same depth
people on CAF said it would act more like a 2 inch wide port, but the 4 inch half at the end of the port would cut back on wind speed I will test it when it's done and post results
if I have one port, with 180 degree bend( the port doubles back on itself ) now the first part of the port is 2 inches wide, and the second part of the port(after the bend) is 4 inches wide all other parameters equal, does that give me a 3 inch wide port?
in car audio you want the music to sound like it is coming from in front of you so you cross your subs over as low as your midbass drivers will allow as far as choosing your midbass driver you are much more limited in a car than you are in a house. being able to put an 8" woofer in the...
I read that on these forums in one of my searches, when I brought it up at parts express the guy looked at me like I was crazy, oh well, silly salesman. Parts express has Behringer products now, they had another Behringer product there that was just a crossover, for $90, I thought about it...
yeah, I did bottom them out playing video games, but I wont watch movies loud enough to do any damage, I'm not worried about them too much, they've seen much worse abuse I got to do something for now, I can't see any problems from using a car crossover in the house, what could go wrong...
I still haven't found a grill to cover the hole, I need to look harder I did get the amp, I hooked it up to a coulpe of high excursion car audio subwoofers in a 3 cu.ft. ported box tuned to ~30 Hz I have watched some movies, played some video games, and listened to music, I see now why you...
I love your box with the 2 Stryke 15's but a box with a sub on each side would have some bad cancellation issues http://www.teamgates.net/bronco.html all that equipment and when they first hooked it up, it was only playing in the 140's, they had cancellation from the subs facing those...
