You love getting bigger bass in a smaller space, but how can you get the best performance? We break out the RTA and show you the real differences between speaker positioning, whether or not to use a common chamber and more.

I have always used separate chambers for each sub in a multi sub setup.

@richardgonzalez8961 5 ай бұрын

Me too when did that change? I started building boxes in the mid 80’s, took a break in the late 90’s and started to get back into it and no one uses separate chambers anymore. When I ask why I can’t get an answer that makes sense.

@@richardgonzalez8961 I don't have any clue as to when that changed, nor have I any idea as to why. In my opinion, separate chambers for each sub in a multi sub box just sounds better.

To say that you get better low frequency response from a sealed box is not false. But it is in my opinion a very missledning statement. It's a complicated subject that takes more to unfold and understand. Many different factors is at play.

@Gone_X_ing Ай бұрын

Love the content. I have a ? -If i have similar subs but one is D4 and other is D2. Is there any way to wire them in one enclosure for usable&sustainable play? U touched on it quickly at 4:25 but did not go into much detail. TIA

@KICKER-AUDIO Ай бұрын

It is not advised, mainly because each sub will receive a different amount of power. As a result, one will play a frequency louder than the other, causing some distortion/cancellation.

I wish you had used brown noise when testing the speaker spacing experiments. I wonder how the bass spectrum changes when changing the angles and spacing. Great video by the way.

You talk about distance from the sub.. i have mine in a openbaffel setup with 2 6.5 subs in a sedan rear shelf.. when im in the driver seat the bass lacks but if i lean abit forward it gets alot stronger.. any ajustment i can do or do i need to move my subs?

Are there any sealed boxes that play 20 to 35 hertz better? The box I have now goes quiet in this range.

@KICKER-AUDIO 3 ай бұрын

Absolutely. Its going to depend a great deal on the tuning of the enclosure and the sub itself, not to mention the power you have and the crossover settings. Lots of moving parts in car audio.
