I second what Karani said. However I don't think you'll need a MiniDSP you should first try to use the EQ built into the crown. You could also forgo the UMIK-1 mic, ARC is showing you where the peaks are already. I would perform a cuts around the 50hz range with the Crown and then run ARC again. One other tidbit, I bet you could use your ARC mic with REW. Love the progress tho man, can't wait for the next video! Keep up the awesome work.

@@twistacatz I highly doubt the EQ in crown goes below 20Hz. It would be great for ported subs but not sealed sub like this. Also, that arc graph is not as detailed as REW, because it's primarily meant for auto EQ. Yes, the arc mic can be used with rew. He should download rew and familiarize himself with that. If he sees things that need adjusting below 20Hz, minidsp is the way to go. DIYers mostly build sealed subs to maximize on subsonic frequencies, otherwise ported is the way to go.

Thank you buddy

There's literally 0 option. So you get thicker wire.

I wouldn't put it in a Corner but typically all subs are against a wall

personally I'm not buying either of them because its not enough juice UNLESS you don't wire both subs together inside the box and run one sub per channel, then i'd get the 2502. If you don't mind having two wires coming from the sub then 2502. If you plan to wire internally in the box then go for something more powerful. If you're using the 4ohm version then wire them together and buy the 2502

The subs will be in individual boxes so I was planning on just wiring each sub to their own channel. Should I wire it differently though? This is my first time building anything like this so if you have some advice or recommendations , I’d love to hear it. Maybe a behringer NX6000D would be amp to power 2 18s? Lol that’s another thing, the biggest sub I’ve ever had is an SVS PB13 ultra! This 18” is going to be friggin wild

yes I get most of my used gear on ebay.

@@Kpaceguy Thank you. Before my back broke and left me in the place I am today I was trying to build a home stereo. Now I can't, but I enjoy watching guys like you work honestly and build something I like. Respect.🤛

@@donjaun540 thank you brother

Buying used electronics is real stupid buy it new dude 1400.00

Only when it starts to heat up

Let's just say I haven't found a reason to replace it with anything else

@@Kpaceguy Fair enough

Lots of tuning happens in Home theater. The room changes everything.

@@Kpaceguy hopefully you get it together and make me look good 🤣🤣🤣

There is audio refresh your video

Got it thanks.

You're correct. But it's louder to you than it really is in the house because of my mic

@@Kpaceguy ok fair enough, truthfull answer!. how far off would you say to your ears the home made rythmik is to the o.g?? Because honestly it looks bad ass mate👍

@@syeanotherday9233 it's crazy close actually! The drivers are built Similar and the box is built exactly the same. I tried to mimic the dsp rythmik uses in their amplifiers the best I could. I'll definitely do a full review/comparison video soon

@@Kpaceguy great👍, can't wait to hear that, you have done what looks like a real solid job on the build of it so I'm really hoping it's a stonking performer!. Time will tell I guess. 👍👍

Agree to disagree
