Since I don't really understand the concept of Q. It looks like ppl want it between .5 and .7 to get a better lower response in a sealed box? It is impossible for a .08 cubic ft space to fit this sub. So, I should probably build the smallest box possible? So im really looking at a box of .17 cu ft after sub displacement? i think thats the smallest I've read about. The sub were supposedly make to work with a PR box, maybe thats why the specs are different....?

Thanks for the help by the way. I've been trying to get my head around everything the last couple of days and its a lot to read through.

yea, I just saw that too. Its not the same sub. Is there a way to actually calculate a subs recommended box size from the tech specs? I tried to use a slotted box calculator, but I am still trying to figure everything out and i think it needed a cubic ft size.

Can you link me to there site?

Hello everyone, I was using the search button, but I didn't come up with a solid answer. I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I'm looking for the recommend box size for 1 orphan sealed. I've read from other post that said the orphan are about the same as the SA-8 and likes the sealed box size of .17^3ft. I've also read a post from mike, that It needed .2 to .5^3ft, but I'm not sure if it was the recommended for seal or port. I actually wanted to try out they type of boxes and see which one sounds better to me. I do want to to try to make a passive radiator box, which I believe these subs were intended for. Here is the info from another post on this forum. T/S Parameters for the Orphan 8 Single 6 Ohm: Qts - 0.405Qes - 0.442Qms - 4.778Fs - 34.289 HzRe - 5.25 OhmLs - 12.16mHLp - 4.053 mHRp - 25.46 OhmVas - 5.031 LMms - 214.1 gCms - 100.6 m/NBl - 23.39 T*mSensitivity - 78.44 dB17mm Xmax

I did use the search, the info is hard to come by.

Just trying to look up info on the soundsplinter orphan 8. Got them a couple years ago, but never did enough research to know what kind of box to build.
