I've uploaded this to another channel to see whether the algorithm shares it around a bit more! Thanks for being a part of it! Even if you've seen this before, please like and subscribe to help this spare channel of mine pick up traction so that more people get recommended the series 😊
@charlesreedy9330 I remember reading dj mag in the middle to late 90s where they mentioned the best sound they'd heard was a huge bin (about the size of a smallish car) with 4 12s driving a passive 18, that piqued my interest from the get go
These Videos are so awesome bro. It's really interesting to see them work on these small scales. I think it would be even cooler if at the end of the season, you pick a few of the best ones and maybe one fan favorite (like a pole in the community tab or something) and then build them to scale and test them
I think some of the harmonic issues are because of the plastic boxes.. MDF board boxes always sounds better than the cheap plastic boxes from the cheap plastic fantastic mini hi-fi systems.. maybe a a wider gap around the centre tube with a thin 1mm layer of foam to absorb the high harmonics would be a useful solution.. frankly a 1mm foam layer inside all these plastic boxes would be beneficial.. but in saying that I have had some plastic boxes that sounds pretty good but are mostly full range driver and tweeter setups and some of these tiny boxes sound okay 👍 not great obviously but okay!!
I'd also like to see you do some testing on homemade boxes that include passive radiators! Without porting and with porting. That would be really interesting to see 😊
I bet that little speaker would really sound amazing and get higher DB ratings if that tube was all solid wood made from something like solid oak or maybe a little softer like birch.I do believe wood absorbs the reverb that plastic gives as well. This is just my opinion though, i'm not really sure if it would sound much better or not. I believe in the physics of wood vs plastic though
Thanks buddy! 😊 Hexibase did test different woods Vs 3d printed plastic and there were very minimal differences, with the plastic being extremely usable which was surprising!
I’m not sure how to create those cabs never messed with the programs …. I do have a design idea for you to try and would love to collaborate with you to see if we can create it.
Any body out there able to redesign this but with a screw system for adjustment? could work something like a slide in a horn instrument to adjust tuning and volume.
Could you just imagine if someone could make a ported enclosure where the outlet air was in phase with the subwoofer cone I think the output would be incredible,of course passive radiators kinda work but out of phase with the cone

At first i was like "no way, someone stole/re-upped a Barevids vid?" But thankfully it was you lol. Cool vids and tests, hope you do more!
Same
😂
Bro got me fully invested in this series while making me learn something too, good video!
Gosh...this series is genius! Are there plans for series two?
I hope so. This should catch every basshead's attention. This is bass science
@fusion82 got to love how Sam has gone deep with transferable measures so this could relate to bigger drivers
I always wanted to build an enclosure similar to this. 10"sonotube inside a 12" tube with spacers in between the tubes to get the tuning needed.

@@richbrown5852 yep. He's a smart dude

Always looking forward to these boom or bust vids 👍👍
saw someone who put a subwoofer in the middle of sheet of plywood infinite baffle style and that was it actually sounded great
Very informative in a awesome way. Keep it going
Interesting yet good use of technology
I'm loving this series! You could have a box-builder showdown with some of the bigger names in the US. If you need help contacting them let me know.
thanks!! Yes that would definitely be fun and create some friendly competition :)
Nice job. Keep up the good work!
These videos are really fun to watch, thanks man!

Nice it looks different.
I built 12 of the wicked ones. 12 of them with 2400 watts to each sounds monstrous. I always wanted to build the 1/2. But I never did.
Could there be a reflection off the back wall? My idea for this years ago included a cone shaped back wall.
Hello! Can you do a push pull configuration with two subs sandwiched together and see how efficient it is?

@barevids cool. Also good to know ty. Blessings to the family and you

what application do you use for measurements?
What size is this driver? Why do you test at the frequencies chosen instead of in 30hz actual (5hz scaled) increments?
Can your answer my question on the last video please also love boom or bust and im subscribed

The air outlet of a ported box IS always in phase with the driver at and around tuning frequency, that's how they work! 😊
How can i buy one of these for my lil B2 Audio rc2 2 inch sub lol?
its at 69 likes but i have to like the vid. i am sorry
