Hi all, has anyone seen this video on this site?

http://www.low-hz.com/CW12.html

I know its in a car, but look at that cone flex. It looks like it gonna break and fly across the runway.
I want one, or two

for my lounge.

Anyone have the same effect? Who does it belong to?

Cheers mikee55

Well, i think it will be great for ventilation purpose, but i wouldn't want to listen to it. I like a firm bass, and not a sloppy one like that

Cheers

It says the box is a reflex tuned to 43 Hz, so the cone is unloaded at the frequencies it is trying to reproduce, hence all the flapping around. Maybe they think it looks impressive.

Hi!
Look at the wrinkles on sorround during thoose to large excursions, distorsion anyone?

What the purpose of the demo, what does it prove?
Yes we have excusion, how linear, sound quality....

Edit: I agree johnnyx

I now understand, people like flapping woofers to impress with, I did not realise that

Snoop Dan is a hell of a nice guy that gets off on pure Xmax!

....is his test track playing off of the head unit? I mean, is it a proper test track, or is it being fed sine waves via a mixer? Could do with something to rigourously test excursion rather than a sinewave or a DVD/CD. Might seem sad to some, but I like the idea. I guess I need to create my own tune, need to take music lessons.
Theres not enough low stuff in music for my liking,I've already asked what you listen to in another thread somewhere. Once, I recorded an LP to cassette, and deliberately allowed a bit of Low frequency rumble/ feedback through,to get more low-stuff!

,sounded great whilst recording, but suffered on cassette.

Sorry,just wanted to say that. I was young though

Yeah right....& that f is going to propagate correctly thru the car...the stupid thing is distorting so much all those harmonics reach up into the audible range.....THATS why you can hear it!
A sub 20 hz tone you shouldn't hear at all, rather it should rattle windows with an eery stealth.
What a colossal waste of time, engineering & money. All for the dorks to show off the cone bouncing around!

Ever heard of SPL comps?

Those guys ONLY care about high SPL's with one note.

mrshow4u · 25th September 2006, 11:11 PM

That video is just icky. I think it is about looks. ...and apparently seeing a driver pushed so far passed it's limits is impressive. Maybe all of the generated harmonics add to the SPL boost? ...oh yeah, high SPL is good.

Wouldn't it be cool to con all of the one-note loud "bass", club that clean, low distorting, and extended bass is more worthwhile?
