Well I moved to Florida about 3 years ago. I used to live in Atlanta. Anyway I love subwoofers. In fact I love them so much, many of you would think I went overboard on my last project. It was perfect for me. But now in my new home I am unable to have the same setup so I am having to move in a new direction.
I thought I would share the old, along with what my new project will be.
My old setup was 32 yes thats right 32 12" subwoofers.
One set of 16 subwoofers were in the wall in a 6th order box.
The next 16 subwoofers were in the raised floor.
I still have all these subs but in my new house I am unable to use these subs. They sounded great just had low power handling but I made up with that with quantity. I had 1500 watts per 16 subs.
I want to use my amp and still use all my power but in less drives. I will try to make up some of the SPL with bigger, better and more power handling speakers. I have now bought 2 13w7's for the house.. I have one in the car and was very impressed with it. So I ran winisd on the two subs. Looks like I can get a nice flat respomce down to 20hz.. This is in a ported box. I have added the capture of winisd. http://www.flickr.com/photos/zbmarshall/3473823623/
My question on this box is, should I go flat responce or should I go more gain at 30hz or so and it would roll off sharp down to 20hz.
anyway also attached are some pics of my old setup..
