A general question for every one...

Can I put the sub facing down into the carpet when using a ported box, (port facing to the side)

D.

sqcomp · 08-19-2011, 11:27 AM

The deck should be able to turn on two amplifiers...

The relays...you're using them to turn on the amplifiers?

Yes, you can aim the woofer into the carpet. Just make sure you're giving the woofer enough room to move. Now, tell me what your resonant frequency for the caq is?

Some time ago I mention that a small 'pop' from speakers
when turning on/off the HU, you suggested a relay
for the amp, I got these from Adam/Jim to prevent
the pop issue.

OK, now talk to me in plain English! what does that mean?

I made a model (mock-up) of the subwoofer enclosure, pictures tonight!

Do an spl sweep of your car, what's the loudest frequency?

Ok,
here is my way of describing it:

10hz nothing just a low humble

20hz my ears hurt and a bigger humble

30hz my ears hurt and gets louder

40hz really loud and my hair tickles!

50hz calms down and not as loud but doors start to reverberate.

60hz not as loud as 50hz but everything vibrates

70hz it just keeps smoothing more and more....

So I guess some where around 40hz it's the loudest!

Designing the enclosure for the I6SW:

Ok, space required 0.35 cubic feet = 9.9 liters lets call it 10 liters

So I got some pop-corn and filled a couple of bags with 10 litters of pop-corn and ready to go:

remember to give the woofer some room for excursion...

Don't worry, I'm aware about that!

I wanted to see the woofer in the original designs but for many reasons will go facing down. I'm providing extra space for the cone to "move" (o:

Why would you face it down into the carpet, vs facing up into the cabin? I realize there's a protective/ hidden factor, just seems it would muffle the sound badly?

Besides many factors like protective, away from heat vent, easier installation, etc. It's a ported box so all the bass will come out of the 2" vent that will face towards the fire wall!

I'm waiting for the 2" port...

From Precision Sound Products

I also need to get a 2" PVC-90 degrees elbow, from Lowes, the port needs to be almost 16" long.

D.

derickveliz2 · 08-24-2011, 02:09 AM

OK, 2 a.m. again

Tape night! there is something about this that I have no patience...

So the floor is not flat, there are some curves and bumps, to mold the cardboard I spray cleaner to the back and then let it sit with lots of weights on top, a day under the sun and will evaporate the liquid and hopefully the cardboard will hold it's shape. (and stay clean lol)

Next would be start glazing!

Any clues about integrating MLV to the subwoofer enclosure build up? or I'm just acting stupid?

Sorry bro...I was up in Canada this last weekend winning! Apparently, IASCA has me as the best sounding vehicle in the Pacific Northwest region in my class. I won a 1st place showing with a score of 225 in SQc Amateur division. It was a regional championship event, the Western Canadian Finals. It was a 3x registered event for IASCA. This means that I can compete at SBN in Daytona Beach Florida with the car and go for a World Championship.

...Alas, I don't have the time or the money to take my car all the way across the country and back for a two day event...

I can still take solice that without proving any more, I have the best sounding Amateur class vehicle in the region this year.

Congratulations!!!, I can see (feel) how you end up in 1st place, I'm very happy for you.

Now you know why I don't compete! it's just too much of a commute for me, jeje LOL
