Re: Building the Pulse...


Hi Derrick and welcome to the Shack

Thanks!

I never have figured up the cost, but I suspect it would be around $800-1000 or so for the driver and materials, unless you could catch a good deal on the drivers, which have been known to surface all along.

The software used to design it is WinISD... we have a Sticky Thread that explains the use of it and where you can download it from.

Re: Building the Pulse...


Thanks...I am trying to build subs and speakers, so I am just looking at what everybody else is doing and gathering some info. I am 16 and I just bought some klipsch XF-48's, so I owe my parents about 1000$'s still, so I can't build anything yet .

Re: Building the Pulse...


I thought about building a sub using an audiopulse driver, but the idea's still fermenting in my head. Very nice enclosure, must have taken a long time to build and cut. How much cubic feet of air is their in that enclosure?

Re: Building the Pulse...


Check out the first post... it will give you all the details. It ended up being tuned to about 18.7Hz, so the volume or port is a bit off from what I planned.

Wow Sonnie, looks very nice. When I saw one of the first pics with all the baffles I laughed. Very nice.
