bass speaker help

[tinitus]

modular midbass horn coming along ok
hope to test it soon 🙄

funny..they sound quite good connected to my 'hifi' playing music

for bass guitar...they still need to be part of a 3way
and that was expected, since it was the actual goal

I had a modest hope that maybe...but no freebies this time

it will probably do duty in my next 3way hifi stereo speaker 😛

Should be pretty exciting to listen to. Got any response and distortion curves yet?
especially interested in what happens with a 5-string bass... distortion?
-RNM

now tested
moves too much
needs a high pass filter

but I may be able to support a guitarist 😀

crossover update
added zobel to woofer inductor
and it now needs reversed polarity on midrange, instead of woofer(with no zobel)

and its also now much better mounted, on special 'magic wood'
seems to work
note two the different kinds of wood
could be important 😀

its now fully 'standard' passive
and Im using just one channel amp/mono

new woofer box on the drawing board
planned to aperiodic, with 18" woofer

Do you want to add a flow-resistance to it or what ?

Do you want to add a flow-resistance ...

yes, that was my intention

at first I planned to use a drilled back plate, mounted with felt
would make changes easy

but now I consider using the corner bracing, and 'handle holes'

yesterday I was lucky to find a cheap front grill 🙂

it will work like this

working on a tweeter

planning to mount thread inserst outside the woofer chassis
and need to make sure they wont hit the front grille
thought I would try to put the front grille in place of the woofer
and quite funny that it matches this accurately
no problems, it seems 🙂
