    This would be way more interesting with REW results since we cant hear the SPL and the microphone probably cant convey the lower frequencies. I would also like to see a compression test

      Yes, I agree. When the dual 12 is done, I'll include the REW measurements. For reference, the dual 10 hit 111 db at 26 hz with the mic about 15 feet away. That's a room gain measurement, but impressive nevertheless.

    I built a 10-inch subwoofer with a passive radiator tuned to 16Hz. It truly digs very deep. It is not loud, but it didn't need to be loud for me to absolutely enjoy it. It still sounds very visceral, even at lower volume. I can feel the bass even at reduced volume. It does an excellent job with pipe organs & synthesizers. The secret sauce is the 10-inch passive radiator with huge Xmax.
    It is capable of hitting very hard on well recorded kick drum, so it is not sloppy sounding at all.

      I use two tens directly underneath my left and right fronts sealed radiator subs so the internal air pushes back through to slam the radiator. My own opinion is that not all movies or programmes are for ported subs. When a programme or movie comes on with music I prefer the punch. Ported always gives sense of air around the room.

    I know a lot of the speaker power amps are rated well at 2 Ohm. I've two SItereo Integrity HST 18's I need to get boxes for (looking at custom Full Martys or maybe custom GSG Devastator boxes for home theater). Thing is they're the dual 2 Ohm voice coil versions so need to be wired for 4 Ohm (series) or 1 Ohm (parallel) unless I want to use one amp per voice coil to get that 2 Ohm sweet spot. Do you know if the Speaker Power amps are stable at 1 Ohm (I need to run a DMM on the speakers as I doubt they're exactly 1 Ohm - just close at their lowest when run parallel)? I was looking at the SP 8KW or 12KW stereo rack amps for the power so that I could feed these a full 2KW RMS each but have plenty of room left to dig for those big events in movies where the speakers want that peak power. But the ratings are really best at 2 Ohms.

    • @righteousbuilds3576
      @righteousbuilds3576  8 місяців тому

      I know that the sp1-4000 and the sp1-6000 have 2 ohm power ratings posted on their website, and I have the sp1-2400 wired for a 2 ohm load, which it's doing just fine with. But I haven't seen anything about whether they're stable at 1 ohm.

    • @052RC
      @052RC 2 місяці тому

      If you have a 4 ohm option, why wouldn't you go that route? Just because an amp is rated for 1 or 2 ohms, doesn't mean you should try to make a speaker that goes that low. If you think an amp is going to preform just as well at 1 or 2 ohms than 4, you're crazy. The harder you push it, the worse it preforms. 4 is still pretty low.
      I know you think you will get more power with less resistance, but there's a few things you may not know. First, there are no standards manufacturers have to go by when rating an amp for power. Every company is left to do it however they see fit. If you take 5 amp from 5 different companies, all rated for the same amount of power, and measured them all the same way, every one would be different. No 2 would put out the same amount of power. Not only that, when you see these ridiculous power ratings for 500 or 1000 watts, or even higher, its silly. You can only get numbers like this on a test bench using a continuous test tone. Real music is far more demanding. Its like if you want to make your car go faster, you can invest money for high quality upgrades and do it right, or you can drive down a hill with your foot to the floor. You're chasing watts by driving down a hill.
      A question for you. A watt is volts x amps. Assuming the same amount of distortion for all 3 examples, do you think these 3 amps will all preform the same? Amp1: 10v x 10a = 100 watts (assume an 8 ohm load for all 3), Amp 2: 25v x 4a = 100 watts, Amp 3: 4v x 25 a = 100 watts.
      When you go to wire up the sub you're building, before you close everything up, have a friend run the speaker at 2 ohms and 4 ohms. Listen to them blind with the spl levels matched, and see witch one you think sounds better.

      It's more a question of the output of the sub being matched better with the speakers for the 10. If you turned up the whole system in line with the output of the sub increasing, it would sound more balanced. And especially on a cell microphone it will compress and overpower when the bass is that much louder.

    That 10 delivers, but when it all comes down to it, it's more down to the surface area.
    If the box of the small one are able to flex and it has damping inside to eliminate resonance, it will be like the surface area of an 18 all around, it kinda make sense if you ask me, but the 18 digs much deeper.
    I do make music myself, but it's not publiced, although I can easily make tracks that digs well into the 18 hz area.
    I first for me recently is that my daw decided to quit on me because of low memory maybe and high load, but I gues it will do that kind of thing when every plugin rack going into the master is filled with at least 3 to 7 vst's on average across 23 rows of different sound generators.

My main complaint is that even the 18s just seem to kick, and don’t really go deep. Not sure if you have the powered version, but if you do, those seem to clip relatively easily and sound like garbage when playing bass music, especially outdoors at a louder volume. However I’ve noticed that pro audio subs, when done right, tend to usually sound punchier and more musical outdoors due to the general lack of echoes and reverb. I vastly prefer intimate outdoor concerts to any other music listening experience.

They had a lot of pre-recorded modern pop music with heavy bass being sent through the subs at one point. It was pretty loud up front, but a bit quiet in the back. The sound was overall treble-heavy, and the subwoofers built in amps were already clipping so badly that the kicks started to almost sound like 2 or 3 separate peaks, like “Ppuph!” (In contrast with “Puh!!!”) and they just had no depth to them whatsoever.

    Compared to the JTR, the 10" sounds better through your mic and through my headphones at first, but paying closer attention, it's clear that the JTR is more faithful to the source material. The 10" sub is exciting the second harmonic on a lot of the lower tones (sub-50 Hz), giving it the illusion of going deeper or being louder, but it's distortion and not accurate sound. Comparing both to the 24", you can actually hear the details in the low tones. And it's properly exciting the room modes (and the door).

If everything is equal an 18 will always beat a ten. Unless the box is completely wrong for the driver. The box and the environment has a lot to do with it. My son has 2 twelve's in his car on 1500 watts. I have a single twelve in a custom enclosure in my car on 700 watts. On the spl meter mine does a 143db on music. His does a 137db. If he got an enclosure optimized for his subs his would absolutely be louder than mine.

      I still hold a record, 30yrs later. I had two down firing 12in Blue Thunders from 1994. On a JSE 400watt amp, mids and highs off a 50x2 Precision Power Art Series. Clarion head unit. I hit a 152db with less than a total power of 500watts. I spent months with a music teacher, science teacher and MTX designing this set-up so the subs stayed within their maximum frequency range for a ported box, but using the car as a loaded horn. Down firing about 4 inches, I think during testing I used red bricks on their sides. Firing back through about 8in up, then the hatch glass acted like the horn. I nearly destroyed that car, breaking the mirror off the windshield, knocked the steering wheel collum off and so much more. 3 of us sat on the hatch and it bounced us up in the air. From a very literal 1/2 mile away it was shacking windows. I know because I got the police called on me. When you make the box right, you can maximize the subs output. When you use science, you can make that sound amplify by using physics the same as a horned instrument can take raspberries from your lips and fill an entire concert hall loudly. Tens will be cleaner with less mass for control, but the larger subs will be more efficient with lows because of the mass and cone area always helps with efficiency since a single 18 is like 4 10's of usable cone area. So 100watts on each, the 18 will be considerably louder. And the frequency range is dependent on the subs suspension, motor and coil. The enclosure size allows for the tuned frequency response or maximum frequency response, but at a cost or benefits of power handling. To get lows you need a massive box in most cases. Or a 4th order tuned extremely low with a subsonic filter and that ported sub brings up the higher stuff

If you pay attention to the fs and box expectations to hit that frequency, you'll see, a single 12" is superior to 2 10"s in a 4th and a half. Same box size. Even that 18" is nearly the same box size and also about 6db louder at 1000w, but may not have the tight bass of the 10's. I do like his concept, especially if he opens it up to 12". Even Sundown claims to hit lows, or B2 with an 8". But it probably would take the same size box or even bigger and can do about the same. But also without the power handling either.
