Box options for CSS SDX7.

901Fixer · 3rd March 2009, 01:59 AM

I've perused the Planet10 website and found the plans for a sealed, vented and ML-TL box for this driver. The ML-TL is almost 4' tall but I've seen another design which is shorter and used as a stand/base that utilizes two SDX7's in a push-push and side firing. It seemed like I've seen a few pictures of this sub over the months but now I can only find one. Has the plan been finalized? Is this design just a folded ML-TL?

Plans for that have to be asked for... but that design didn't work out as intended. It is a TL but stuffed to the point where it might as well be sealed. The box is too small.

When I searched for SDX7 I did find where you were pleased with a 14litre sealed box. I just bought a single used one from the Market Place and will make a sealed box for it until I get a pair or two pairs.
How did the ML-TL design on your site work with the two drivers in push-push?

We haven't built that one yet.

What would you say is your favorite box to date for the SDX7 either single or bipole? How much amplifier power does each driver need? Size is not a problem, I'm a bachelor.

Would Shadow be a contender for the dual driver type? You could always plunk a mid and tweeter on the front.

So far of what we have built, the 17 litre single sealed in Tysen, with the 14 litre single sealed with the built-in 2.1 channel plate amp (to go with uFonken) close behind. Next build will be a quad driver sealed. Then to rerplace the TLS, a sealed dual driver. I have some 7" Easttech for the TL boxes.

What sort of performance you looking for WRT eff., BW? What are you mating it to?

These will support a pair of Aiko's with the FE108Enabled drivers I got from Dave. Also a pair of Bose901's but don't tell nobody, I can't take the heat.

I can't honestly tell you what I'm looking for since all of this DIYAudio is so superior to what I've owned over the years. I always assumed it better to go with bigger drivers for bass but seeing how much the SDX7 is liked on this site, I've changed my mind.

What does "WRT" stand for by the way?

WRT: with regards to
eff: efficiency, but he really means sensitivity

BW: bandwidth
