Need new eclosure for PRV subs

[valmiki77]

So what type of enclosure would be optimal for these subs that I can can get some decent low end but be portable at the same time?

Um. Vented cabinet? With a vent that's actually large enough to not exceed airspeed reqs

Just do this:

no. do not do that! vents are obviously wayyyy to small.

What?

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

4 of these isn't good enough? They made the sub, I'm pretty sure they have a clue about what they're doing.

oops didnt make it down to that page after seeing the initial rendering with the ports at only depth of baffle.


and dont assume because a manufacter posts a subwoofer plan that its "awesome" or even decent. BC has some questionable enclosures posted on their page lol

True. Eminence also makes questionable sims. These guys actually sell enclosures though, so I believe these plans are a little more founded in reality.

If i "sold" enclosures I'd be even more guarded with my good designs

 

[valmiki77]

The enclosure plans that are given, are not the same enclosures they sell. Hmmmm.

I fiddled with hornresp and still built the th18. It sounds and feels awesome. Thanks for your input gentlemen.
