Tutoring needed, been out of the game for too long>>??

[bungle76]

Hi all, can anyone or more help a willing student out.....

Basicly, I have a design with chosen drivers. My issue is with inferior knowledge in sizing the speaker cabinets for final construction.

I dont want to be just told the answers, I want to work out and understand them for myself.

Later I will add pics and details of design and drivers and welcome any input or critic whether negative or positive....

yours hopeful,

Geoff.

These forums are a good place to get some help. Just post your plans, drivers and questions If you have already the drivers and are wondering on the cabinets or crossovers, simulation programs like WinISD (for enclosure) or VituixCAD (for crossovers) are a good place to start working on your design. Both are freeware and quite simple to use.

There is a downloadable 7th edition of the "Loudspeaker design cookbook" to get you started. Whenever I wanted to learn anything, I looked for a book first. Beats staring at the display.

I understand the need to understand it yourself, but you may also find some modelling tools helpful to connect the dots between choices and results.

I use WinISD (the old version) for cabinets and The Edge for baffle step correction. I know this makes me weird. Most people use Jeff Bagby's Blender, but The Edge may help you get a more visceral feel for choices and outcomes.

Best of luck,
