@oldhvymec This makes sense.
What sub would you recommend?
Subwoofer for music, how low?
I am looking for a pair of subs for music. I plan on having four if the two can blend with my speakers.
I have the Tekton Double Impact and tomorrow I will get a set of Buchardt S400Mk2.
I have been looking at the REL T/9x but the only go down to 27Hz at -3db. Should a sub not go down to 20Hz?
I live in Denmark so I have fewer options. I really like the swarm sub array but to costly to get it to Denmark.
I am looking for recommendations. It could be DIY or a specific sub.
I am open for suggestions
Merry Christmas

DEBRA isn’t very expensive. James R. No idea on the shipping. I thought some of the parts were from Parts Express, like the amps. They have pretty good shipping rates too. Flat packs, there are a few sources, some better than others. PE is one. How much material does it take to make 4 1cf boxes? Under a 4 x 8 sheet of 3/4" Hardwood, Plywood, HDF or MDF. Chip board will work fine for subs.. They don’t have to be pretty. You can add a Mohawk to your subs.. :-) Let me hunt up some parts I would and ARE using. Regards |
4 10" 44-10s. This is my personal favorite sub of all time. This will hit what EVER you want, no problem.
I use Behringer NU12000s and a DCX2696. The DCX has 6 outlets for 6 different setting or you can use a 4 module model like a NU4-6000. So we are clear in 2cf boxes and with a 12" passive radiator they will hit below 20hz direct coupled. Excellent cone control. Super bang for the buck.. 4 will pressure a room VERY easy. Thats 4 active 10" and 4 passive 12". ALL are considered medium to high high excursion drivers, for LOW distortion. I've used them for a long time. 5 years ago they would come up on sale for 99.00. NOW 199.00. Worth every penny. I've never had a failure with that driver.. I use it in my car too.. Impressive, IB in the car though, NO port ot passive.. One of the best speakers for columns I've ever used too. 16hz 1000 watts columns under 5% distortion. That's VERY low.. Remember DECOUPLE and build to decouple, Air, springs, pods, BUT decouple.. NO spikes for music, EVER. Spikes are for SNOW.. LOL If you do put any driver pointing down, you have to enclose the slot. You have to add a butt plate. Otherwise it has to be on the side or top (not the best but not bad with a single driver). Regards
