It is much more Re and Xl. You are confining your definition to the actual voice coil inductance. You are forgetting about all the other properties that effect the overall impedance. But I am not going to argue with you. *Edit. Quote fail...

So why do people say "im raising to or after box rise I'm at" thanks for looking for me by the way Because they are retards. I wrote a tutorial about impedance that was pinned on here a few years, it is somewhere in the advanced section more than likely...

The inductance in a speaker does change when you put it in a box though.... it shouldnt be called "rise" however. The inductance can be affected by any dielectric. No. The impedance changes. This is due to much more than inductance....

You can't find anything because there is no such thing as "box rise". Never has been, never will be... What you do have is a system impedance response. It both rises and falls. The system impedance is primarily influenced by the enclosure. If you know what your tuning and enclosure volume is you can pretty much model an exact system impedance plot. That will tell you exactly what your impedance is at every frequency. The only way to change the system impedance (e.g., you want to lower it at a certain point) is to change the alignment (tuning and volume) or change the driver voicecoil configurations. Bear in mind, if you change the system impedance you are also changing the system response, so just trying to lower it at a certain point may be detrimental to overall output or sound quality. Here is a sample impedance curve. The two peaks are above and below the resonance (tuning) of a 4th order enclosure. The gradual rise above 300Hz is due to voicecoil inductance. So, you can see how manipulating tuning will manipulate impedance.

No. #1, there is no rule for port area vs. enclosure displacement. #2 Even if it were a 40in2 vent it would still behave 100% as a Hemholtz Resonator (a port). You may get compression at full output, all dependent on drive power. Just verify tuning with a source that plays test tones. Tuning is where the cone moves the least. The only way to to know if that vent is too small is to model and look at vent velocity.

Of course there will be riots... There will peaceful protests, too... But in the end, only the idiots causing all the damage will be the ones on TV... Both groups are morons...

Now they are saying he tested positive for Weed and Heroin... Going to turn into a mess... Mix that in with any medical conditions and you have a recipe for disaster...

I was reading earlier today that he did not say the guy was banging head... Contradicting the earlier report(s)... Who knows...

I don't think you can break your own neck very easily...

Google search "Dampening". Try and find some articles that talk about loudspeaker dampening and how different enclosures dampen the drivers differently. If you have a chance, pick up the Loudspeaker Design Cookbook by Vance Dickason and read at least the first few chapters... That will get you off in the right direction...

Did I ever say anything about deserving anything from the police or saying you deserve to be treated bad in custody? Life is about choices and just about everything that happens to you is due to something you made a choice about, one way or another. My life isn't vanilla. I've lived in 9 countries. I have worked with police on and off for 18 years. I am not naive... I've seen people shot and killed that weren't much out of arms reach. I just based my views off of what I have learned to do (and not to do) over the years... But this is Off-Topic, so I can say this. Most people on this board disagree with me when it comes to being in charge of your own actions/life... It is OK to disagree, but to call it a "shitty mentality" is unsettling...

^^ Not really. There are a lot of aspects that related to "Cone Control" or dampening... Size is not the only aspect, and often there are other aspects of the design that affect dampening even more so in a certain passband...

The rioters after the games are just as bad. A lot of people made that a big deal, but mainstream media doesn't look at it that way. It's a big deal to everybody because they are ignorant. They make it a race matter. At the end of the day a guy is dead because of something that happened in police custody. Nobody knows what happened, but someone F'd up... To make it a race matter is asinine, 2X as many white people have died while involved with police... Oh yeah, and how do you end up in police custody anyway??? Everyone forgets about that part...

Bunch of retards...

Mechanical power handling is related to enclosure volume and tuning. When you change these variables, you change the mechanical power handling of the overall system (varying with frequency). Some people will make an enclosure smaller than the optimal response/efficiency design in order to increase mechanical power handling. They believe this will increase SPL. It doesn't... Any net increase in SPL will be due to a shift in system resonance. The same resonance could be exploited even more so with the larger enclosure at a different tuning...

Your talking RMS ratings. They have nothing to do with output or efficiency, at all...

Let me rephrase, it is pointless to make a box smaller for the sole reason of increasing mechanical power handling...

God NO! Making a box smaller to handle more power is one of the worst things to do, ever. All you do is drop efficiency and create more compression.

For 3500 watts you could probably get away with 250-300 amp fuse if that is all you can find...

Whatever you do DO NOT buy CCA. In fact, when I see a manufacturer that offers CCA at all I am highly suspect of value to performance ratio... Fuse to whatever gauge you end up using. The fuse is there to keep your car from catching fire in the event of a short, nothing else...

Nope, it's quarter inch and xlr's I wanna say, I'm rusty on pro audio terms.I'm a huge 2.1/2.2 fan. I would look at something more consumer geared, you may have issues driving those balanced inputs.

I actually had one of those preamps back in the day... I would grab a used Adcom on Audiogon if you are going to go 2-channel: http://app.audiogon.com/listings/solid-state-adcom-gtp-500-ii-preamplifier-tuner-2015-03-25-preamplifiers-92503-riverside-ca Should be able to score one for around $100 if you have the time... Also, I didn't look, but do those monitors have single-ended (RCA) inputs for use with consumer gear?

^^. Yup, you just cut the box size in half and use twice the drivers for the exact same response...

If your dead set on cone area and lots of drivers just go isobarik...

It was kind of a general question. You'll need to model with your maximum dimensions as a fixed value to see if you can make your design goals.
