Hello All!
So I've been reading a bunch of the builds on this woofer along with others. I've played around with WinIsd and feel a bit overwhelmed. I have a few questions that might seem retarded, but i'm stuck.
-Xmax is listed at 33mm with a Xmech of 40mm. which number should i be more conscious of? when i've been modeling, i try to stay just below 33mm which usually occurs around 10hz.
-Pmax is 1500w yet i see people running much more using crowns or 2500's. what would be the right amount of power to put through this woofer and maintain reliability.
-i see people running different sized sealed units. it seems that the smaller the box, the less excursion you get given the same amount of input power. is this correct? if so, what is the benefit to running a 150L box versus say 225L box?
-given room constraints, i am thinking of building one box with opposing drivers. possibly to cancel out any vibration, if there is any. this would be instead of building two sealed boxes. the thought being that i could maybe stack my tv on the big box and hopefully not experience any tv vibration.
-i can eq with my SMS-1 which has helped lots in playing around with phase, slope, etc. so i do have the ability to tune things even if the sub doesn't go in a great spot.
any and all help is appreciated
thank you,
joe
