thanks!1st thing
i filter low pass LR 12db/octave at 70hz, i just did no filter, to compare it in loudness to my 8inch conical pipe sub,there is a large difference in sound output.. i think im not used to EBS, the rising response is no trouble with the filter..
2nd thing
i think my tiny transformer cant supply my 30watt IC amp with enuf current.. which is a major prob, the va is probably less than equal to AMP rms rating which is VERY bad..jaycar 240watt shud b good
my alignment
-it isnt ideal, but it should be okay with power. i rechecked its output with what power i have,its what i expect.. less than i remember.. perhaps i looked at it with 100watt and then replaced that with '20watt' in my head :-D its certainly the most output ive heard, so clean compared to any sub! my mates 2x kappa pro 10s dont match it for soudn quality and his subs are flying 2cm excursion with 1.3kw, such a waste :)i have been listening to it more, it is surrepticiously louder than i thought, -its because im going lower freq, which is less detectable apart from rumble :-P
and im used to thumping45hz 8inch sub which ive found doesnt actualy sound that nice, and uses that thump to get abit louder :-Dim happy in the fact that i couldnt have bought from a better company
the only sub i cudve gotn was, SHIVA12 or JAYCAR 12
so i made good choice next up, basshorn plans for it, to see if its viable :-)
thanks :-)
OH and also, im putting sound dampening material in it next time the speakers off, and siliconing around the frame to make sure its airtight cos it doesnt mate perfectly with the wood,
