This week I am going to be helping a friend remodel his front setup. He sold his commercial sub, and is replacing it with 2 new DIY ones with some help from me
Basically, he has a timber frame built at the front which houses his screen, speakers, and now we are going to build these 2 subs in there as well. I have added some images below so you can get a better idea of how this is going to work. Any thoughts on the design are welcomed, the final design isnt set in stone yet, but I dont think it will be far from this at all.
My main thoughts are concerning the location of the drivers, and the ports. As the images reveal, the drivers will be in a front left and right position, while the ports will likely end up in a centrally located position, right net to each other. Any thoughts on how this will affect performance is greatly welcomed.
The drivers will be Fi Q18's. The cab is 230 litres, and will be tuned to 19hz (note: The final design used 250 litres and was tuned to 18hz). I think a HPF at 10hz is worth using, and they will be powered with a Crown K2. EQ will be provided by the SVS AS-EQ1. The image shows one sub (the left one) and the other will be the same but obviously the other way around. The port is 400mm x 100mm and is around 1250mm long IIRC.
