6 Tempest in 350m2 room

[wingman]

HI
I need some ide´s about makeing a music and HT sub in a large room of 350m2.

There will be live mucis and cd´s played + HT over the sub.

I´m thinking about 6 tempest + 3000L tuned to 18 Hz.

what do you guy think ?

 

[wingman]

or is sealed better ?

and what is the "EBS-aligned " box ? Is there somthing special with that box ?

Btw. Sorry for my english

If you're going that large, you may want to consider IB subs. (no in-room box)
Infinite Baffle subs

A 4'x5'x10' room is 6000L. 6 Tempests in a room like that? You're a basshead, aren't you?

Well, that's too big a box even for EBS alignment (which is a little larger than normal). How about an IB?

A 350m2 room is a big room... 350 M^2 ~ 1150 ft^2 or something like a 34 x 34 foot room... Though I suppose without the third dimension we could be talking about any where from a 9000 ft^3 living room (about 8' ceiling) to a 24,000 ft^3 ball room (about a 20' ceiling)

Although 6 Tempests in a good box with adequate power would yield impressive results even outdoors! In a 865L sealed enclosure you'd get an F3 of 35Hz and an F10 of 20Hz with Anechoic SPLs in the 120's!

then i just make it smaller

😉



Is the EBS alignment the best way ? Or is sealed better ?


will they be loud enough in 6*865L ? I think i can fit them in under the stage.

3m to selling
😀

will it be tight or boomy ?

I will use it to play ALL kind of music+ live music and HT

Sorry about that, I had no idea what I was thinking at the time.

 

[wingman]

It is generally accepted that a system with a Qtc of above .9 is boomy while one of .7 or less is tighter... In this case for 6 Tempests a 420L box (15ft^3) or smaller is going to be boomy (having a hump in response) while 770L (27ft^3) and bigger will not have any noticable peak in response.

Try modeling the speaker system yourself with WinISD... it's a freeware speaker design program: www.linearteam.org the PRO (alpha) version even has the tempest parameters as well as all the other adire offerings allready in it's database... Good stuff.

what to do ? IB can´t be done

6 tempest or 8 ? how many do you guys think i need ?

 

[mikee12345]

i would put 2 in 400L each tuned to 18hz- because a single 1600L box is ungainly and annoying.

Portability! If u dont like the port sound then block them 🙂
