Tapped horn for Mach 5 IXL 18's?

ThyDntWntMusic · 21st September 2009, 12:27 AM

anyone wanna play around with designing a tapped horn, for 4-8 18inch, Mach 5 subs to go into a wagon?

just seeing what may, or may not fit

yes, I've designed and built a number of "normal" horns, non tapped ones...

but tapped horns just frustrate me!!!

I agree. Everytime I get a good response curve with a tapped horn, the power rating is horrible. Atleast with a FLH, you don't have to worry about the sub unloading below the tuning frequency.

what are some good specs for a woofer that'll suit a tapped horn?

I have an MTX T9512 sub here, that doesn't seem to suit a tapped horn at all

I thought that sub is suppose to be great for FLH's?
