Re: I'm new to the forum, and have a single 15" IB...


I will pull them forward and see if it works better. They are pretty far back there. Should I face them towards the center a little, or leave them 90 degrees from the wall?

I did measure my stud openings yesterday. I have 17.5 " of spacing from inside to stud to inside of stud for my baffle, instead of the usual 14.5. I built that wall at the same time I built my IB baffle, so it's a little custom in width. I have at most 50" in height for an opening, but I can guarentee that my wife won't like a 16 x 45"ish hole in that wall...

I know that is a perfect scenario (and it makes sense), but it looks like a bunch of people here have 4+ drivers coming out of a 16x16 hole. I have even seem some of those 8+ driver systems coming through a pretty small hole.

I guess I will just have to go as big as I think I can get away with!

Thanks for the input. I'll let you know if the mains sound better.

Thanks,
Wes
