Hey Am, Not really looking at making a living from this just a little side project and if i break even i will be happy. I've still not actually heard any of the AA/FI stuff yet but it seems to pretty much kill off the need for a dual motor designs.? I have had lots of different installs over the years and the best sounding one i ever had was 4 X 15's iso' clamshell in a sealed 7 cuft. Sure it wasn't the loudest but i have yet to replicate the sound. 95honda you mention the sq side which is interesting. BILTD will be the first person to tell you that i'm not very SQ orientated! But looking back that i what i miss from the old boot install. Also theroy and what BBP says will/won't happen isn't written in stone? It's a good starting point. Building and testing is the only way to be sure? At the top of the thread i asked if it was a waste of a motor. It seems that the result won't justify cost ? I will get the 15" prototye done a test it against the best of the rest. If it holds its own i will go from there

Thanks for the tips. Chances are it will be an aluminum for now. It's a shame i'm over in the U.K 'cos i really like the SS Kit . The Premuim series would make a good base for a dual motor Driver. Imagine an 18" that will play pretty much as flat as a pancake from 80 hz all the way down to 20hz in say 5cuft vented? It would 'only' need 2k rms to get them going towards there rated xmax ( more like Xmech if i owned 'em) Shame it would all but double the cost of the unit. That has to be the reason no one bothers?

Thanks for the Scan. Yeah thats what i had in mind. Except maybe using a extra basket to house the motor above the cone. Should make it a bit easier to align the gaps for now Got a DD9515 and some other parts set aside for this little venture.

I can't find pics anywhere. You got any links? My final design may even end up looking like morel anyway.

I'm not talking about using 2 drivers. If i was i would then bolt an extra motor to the pair. As nobody currently offes a dual motor driver an iso set up is just a diy method of making a driver that hammers out the lows in a small cab. Isn't that what everbody wants? I am actully thinking about producing these in a limited run and was just getting peoples opinion of weather they think is is a waste of a motor.

Hi i'm new to SSA forums but been around for a while on others. Who has run any type of isobaric set up before? The low end is efforless and immense and all from a smaller enclousere. Also the smaller cab plays the higher freqs really well and just makes for a very flat output over the whole range whilst still staying controlled. Basicly the iso' only makes use of the extra motor and has no real use of the other cone. Or even the other basket for that matter although the other basket make the whole rig easier to mount. I am thinking about a dual motor design and just simply linking the the 2 motors by extending the the formers so they meet. Who thinks this is a good idea ? Who thinks is a waste of a motor?
