Nice build. I did a similar build using a reckhorn D 165 6,5" subwoofer (similar to the tang band) with two 6,5" opposing passives in a net 20l enclosure. It's surprising what these little drivers can do. I like your finish

@justabasslover4404 2 жыл бұрын

Since that sub and amp can work on a sealed box, 4th order bandpass can make that 6.5" sub sound like 8". 4th order bandpass makes the sound of a small subwoofer become big. I've built a lot of 4th order bandpass boxes for my pc. A lot of designs, tuning, different sizes of box and loudness of the amplifier and subwoofer. It never fails to amaze me on how big the sound can be with such a small subwoofer

I think your passive membrane needs some additional weight to lower the tuning frequency. I would add at least two but more likely four or even all ten washers. It's also usefull to feed in some single frequency tracks to figure out where the passive membrane is working.

@jayweb702 Жыл бұрын

He said he added 4 washers for the "desired tuning frequency" so I think he knows what he's doing.

@saardean4481 4 ай бұрын

Impressive build quality and very nice to watch. My only remark is that the damping you are using is not going to help in a subwoofer cause the wavelength is too big for foam or basically anything „foamy“ with little density to make any difference at all. The only thing that would help dampening is bitumen sheets or glueing tiles to the walls to give them more mass. There are also sheets filled with lead particles used in the automotive industry. These also help due to their mass. However if you use thick enough material you don`t even need those. Also bracing the walls with the opposite one where possible stiffens the structure a lot. I really admire your craftsmanship and envy you a little for having such a nice working place. Subscribed .

Hi, im looking to build a BT speaker for outdoor-use which is as loud as possible (im not seeing myself pay a 1000 bucks for a Soundboks). Do you have any recommendations which one of your builds would fit that description or (even better) have a project like that on the way? (since i saw you calling that 150W Speaker from 3 Years ago outdated in the comments, i assumed there may be an updated version or something like that coming?) ^^ I would really like to see your attempt at making an "as-loud-as-possible festival-ready" BT Speaker!

@Pentenfi 2 жыл бұрын

You can model this via WinIsd. The specs of the Dayton PR and the Tang band can be found online. Then you can add weight in the settings of the simulation. There are also formulas for how much mass is needed, but these are rough estimates. In the end, there is no substitute for taking an impedance measurement and trying. The simulations will be off by a few Hz

Good build but a couple of things to note/change: 1) sound deadening foam shouldn't be used inside as you are killing frequency response from your woofer.. instead use acoustic wadding to increase output. 2) Gain is NOT a volume control. Gain is designed to match the signal output of your amplifier so you get consistent rise in volume. If the Gain is set incorrect it will either sound too quite/loud as you turn you amp up. 3) I would have gone with an 8" woofer and 6.5" radiator
