    I know I have a car audio addiction when......

    ...I have 3 12" subs and no enclosures for any of them ....My first subs are sitting on a shelf in my garage ...No equipment is useless, everything has a purpose. .....I have a whole tool box devoted to car audio stuff. ....My tool chest has more car audio stuff in it than tools. ....You have spare MDF on the side of your house incase you need to make an enclosure.

    ABC Enclosures..

    Has anyone done one of these before ? I reciently picked up a eD e8a and I wanted to try it in one. I found a formula that seems fairly simple to follow. Build a box with 2 chambers, one at 3 cuft and the other one EXACTLY half of that, ie 1.5 cuft. Next cut 3 ports all IDENTICAL in length. Put one in the face of each chamber and the third in the wall separating the two chambers. In this instance each port would be either 12.5" long for a little deeper response or 8" long for a little more SPL. Now you have a box with a big chamber with a vent in it, a small chamber with a vent in it, and a third vent in the wall between the two. The woofer also mounts in the large chamber. The way they work is that, at low frequencies, it all functions as one big box with 2 ports, and is tuned to 30Hz (12.5") or 35HZ (8"). At higher frequencies the middle port starts to restrict air movement and the second chamber begins to act more as a resonance chamber but not as part of the box. At this point a second tuning frequency develops 1.9 times (almost an octave) higher than the lower one , ie. either at 57Hz (12.5") or 67Hz (8"). This is similar to a vented bandpass but has more output and smoother sound due to the woofer not being tucked inside the box. The results are that it plays both low and loud, while being relatively nice sounding. The drawback is the box size.

    Sometimes you just have to let go mike... P.S You could just make holes in the bottom portion of the gasket, not the top. So it looks like 6 holes but when you pull it back there are 8
  13. alts, pffttt How many batteries would you need !?!?! Cant have the car on in dB drag

    Honestly, some silly gasket wouldnt turn me away from buying one. And you could always send them ouy when you get them. Its not like the woofer needs it, its cosmetic

    A nice sounding sub. Actually, ABC's are less peaky than a ported enclosure.
