one sub bucket coming up

The wedge is under half a foot. It plays very low, and super fast and snappy. I am almost happy with it as is. I'll try .75 including braces and woofer. x 4. If I can find three more discontinued titanics.

I finally made a terminal plate for it. The epoxy attempt turned out kind of ugly lol.

Yeah, when I was 17 car audio was exploding, and I got in as cheap as possible with a ghetto system, a couple of 12's were part of that. It was loud. Then I gained some self-awareness, and I've never had anything other than stock in my car since.

Funny, when I was young, and with not a lot of money, I built a pair of "Chili Can Speakers".

I got a hold of a pair of them big, "gallon" sized empty cans of chili con carne. Then I reinforced the bottom with a round of plywood and cut a hole so I could mount 6" Pioneer coaxial car speakers. I then stuffed the cavities with... felt stuff... left the back (original can top) opened and mounted them under the front dash.

They sounded pretty good...
 
As long as you make a controlled air tight space for it and decent control of diffusion. With subs its far less critical anyway.

I always had a way of observing everything then ideas branch off. Addmittingly the bucket idea is a rip off but its the first time I seen one made with cookware lol. It functions well thats the main thing. Propped up on the feet you would never suspect it.
 
with the 4 wedge subs, what is that supporting? what is the rest of the system?
You mean entirely? Its pretty modest atm a mixture of sealed 8 and 10", a wired 4 sound DAC2, the basic model with built preamp, and a backup PS nuwave, . Bryston 3bst. I made a big mistake of letting go of my last two channel. Then the crowns, initially was unaware they came out of Magrigal. That is the parent company of a bunch of new and old brands like HK JBL ML, a whole bunch now including Crown. First ones to produce real monaural amplifiers. To say invent can be a touchy claim, but they were making them, and to this day. I always had good things to say about there produ ts. Oh and a new to me line level booster. I thought they were some kind of dorky dodad like some of the 80 equalizers, but its legit and works and needed.

I had four sealed 8 inch rigged up, it was incredible. Now there are a couple of each sizes, in transition. Subwoofers make bliss your ears with two or more tuned in, with decent acoustics. When you get up to several it can be a rush. In an + configuration as I had it. I am going .26 larger per cabinet. It would be easier to buy them 😵

At least I know the direction I'm heading towards. Mostly just involved. Stay tuned.
