Ok, I've learned alot from my first DIY Tempest I built 2 weeks ago. I guess you can say I am now addicted to low bass and want something even better than the SBB4. I've decide to do 100% of the project myself. This means I'm gonna actually create my own enclosure based on my own calculations instead of copying Adire's reference designs.
I basically want something along the lines of the Adire Alignment, but in a 18" x 55" Sonotube enclosure. Here is the specs on the enclosure:
- 18" Sonotube, 55" tall
- 219 Litre enclosure
- 64 Ounces of Polyfil
- 6" x 32" PVC Port Tube tuned to 16hz
- Air speed of port is 9.47 m/s @ 16hz
- Group delay is 16 ms @ 20hz
- Passive sub with bi-wireable binding posts (to take advantage of the DVC)
Anyways, any thoughts on the sub plans ? Is there anything I should change or does it look fairly good ?
