Hi Guys,
Ill admit to knowing jack about designing subs (or just about anything audio related), so sorry if this is a dumb question.
Basically I'd like to target around 120L internal volume, but would like a small footprint. Im not to worried about the height of the sub.
With regards to performance, would the shape of the sub make a big difference? If so what is the ideal, and what shape / dimensions are to be avoided.
I have no idea what the minimum depth could be (front to back) or width, but I guess that is dictated by the size of the driver and how much clearance it needs for optimal operation. Any pointers on this bit?
Id be using 32mm ply.
Working backwards from the target volume I came up with some measurements.
External : (Depth: front to back) 450mm x (Width) 530mm x (Height) 814mm
Internal : (Depth: front to back) 386mm x (Width) 466mm x (Height) 750mm
Comes to about 135L internal volume, which should be ample to allow for sturdy bracing and the driver itself.
Any advice would be appreciated.
