when amp and input is on max you should have distortion. That way you're able to push the equipment at max, by turning down a little bit on either the amp or the input device.
Maybe it's a silly question, but what are the 2 small round holes for in the battery/amp compartment in the middle? Does it also function a little as a bass port, to occur vibrations? Some people make the holes, alot of people don't... If you don't put the AMP-6 in a case dust and moisture can also come through them...
"They're for letting in cold air and letting out warm. That's all" u said. 😀 Oh is it as simple as that? xD
Anyway, I haven't had any trouble leaving them out, but again I haven't used amp6b for mine either 🙂
Hmm yeah, it probably is just for air flow, but I don't understand the fact that it would be mud-resistant, while there can go moisture and dust through those holes... 😛
There's not really anything inside the electronic compartment that is sensitive to dust or moisture if you build it as intended.
In fact, the original intension is that the connection dish at the top has drain holes in it so it just drains inside the electronics compartment and out where the batteries are mounted.
Oh, didn't know about this post I'm sorry (http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/clas...ab-ultimate-party-machine-20.html#post1679589). I guess the battery is kind of water-resistant then? I can distract from this that the holes don't matter that much, as long as there is any way of some fresh air flowing in and out... 🙂
As long as water doesn't puddel and connect the two batteri-poles (which would take quite a lot of water)
True 😛 Thank you very much, looking forward to building it. Love this thread, 400+ pages which can learn you a LOT! 🙂 Long live Saturnus 😛
Hey Adriaan,
Where are you from?
I'm from Poperinge (West Vlaanderen)
Where will you buy your HP10W's?

Zelfbouw, Professionele subwoofer, bas- midden en coaxiale speakers - P. Audio HP 10W 10 inch bas - midden speaker 100 W. - LWA Webshop voor geluidsapparatuur, cheapest I can find... € 36 excl BTW (VAT), so € 43,56 incl BTW each (€ 10 cheaper than intertechnik.com https://www.intertechnik.com/Shop/Loudspeakers/P-Audio/H-Series/_HP10IT_1768,en,4354,52326) Delivery fee is € 15 to Belgium instead of € 10 to Nl. Haven't ordered them yet, delivery time is 3 months though... :/
So I'm finally about to put my Qubinator together. Could anyone give me a quick answer as to how I know the silicone is solvent free? I have a bunch of different tubes of sealing lying around but I can't find anything on them that literally tells me they're solvent free. So what to look for?
If it doesn't smell acidic or hasn't got a strong vinegar smell to it, that's a good indication it's safe.
Hehe, that doesn't really feel like a super reliable way to tell 🙂
What should I look for on the tubes, other than just "solvent free"?
