Coral Flat 8 cabinet recommendation

JC951t · 25th February 2009, 11:35 AM

Hi All,
Can anyone recommend a good enclosure
for the above besides those that's in diyparadise
website ? I like Scott Moose Half Chang design
but I guest it would not work without a redesign
which I'm not qualified to do in the first place.

thanks

'fraid not, it won't. It'd need a dedicated design & the main problem with the Corals is that they've been defunct for many years, and there are no specs. available, unless you can measure your own.

Hi Scott,
Thank you for the reply.
I've got some specs here which I'm told
is quite accurate.

Fo 54 hz
Qms 7.312
Qes 0.52738
Qts 0.4919
Vas 60.319 L

Would greatly appreciate if you could kindly advice.
Thank you again

They might be. But they might not be for your own drivers after so much time has elapsed since Coral went belly up. And I'm loath to try to fudge something (& it would be a fudge anyway as the specs are incomplete) for these, you build it, and then find it didn't work because your own units either spec. differently, or have aged differently & so on & so forth. That's why I've never done a box for Corals, decent units though I gather they were.
