    Box size recommendation

    I'd suggest you set your gains appropriately for your subs. Anything else on your part will end in a bunch more wasted money.
  2. Boy you just know a way into a girl's heart, don't ya? Anywhoo, I'm exaggerating the L7's SQ. It just didn't sound particularly musical. The box made it pound like hell and I enjoyed it while I had it. How is the math on the enclosure a fail? Box recs from the websites: PSI P1: Ported - 1.75-2.5 ft^3 SSA GCon: 2.00-2.50ft^3 @ 28-33hz (not optimal) Fi SSD: Ported box: 1.8-2.5 cuft @ 33Hz Lethal Injection: 1.75 cubes - 2.5 cubes, 25 - 40 Inches of Port, 28-35 Hz Now unless my math is worse than I realized, 2.2cu at 30Hz seems to be right around where all four of those like to sit (a little low tuning for the SSD). My budget isn't $200. I just ballparked that because on much beefier subs I'm gonna need to do way more than upgrade my amp. If I'm going up to a 1500RMS sub I'm not gonna be able to sail along on my stock electrical system. And as for PWK themselves (they gave me the specs, I built), my understanding is they actually throw all the various parameters of the specific driver rather than just doing a simple "tune box volume X to frequency Y". Because I've done the math on box building before. If all they're doing over there is slapping a random volume into an equation to get a port length for a given frequency, yeah I coulda done it myself but I'd seen them recommended before. Did I miss anything? Comparing a spec that someone gave you to a number on a brochure is NOT the math I was referring to. You stated a goal. Have a driver and then want to replace it in your box. If you'd actually have done the math then you'd know exactly why it's a fail. Ryan already told you why and I was empowering you to understand it yourself. Obviously I should have used a bigger spoon.

    Amusingly I made a pot roast yesterday as well. I bet there is one thing that our roasts did NOT have in common

    I never clean my range. That is what my wife is for. She cleans my pipes

    Then read Fi's website. You don't change your box for your amp. Follow the recommendations.

    I hate sealed burners. Absolutely horrid to clean. Mine I don't. Wipe off the stainless and once in a blue moon slap the cast in the dishwasher.

    Of course, only Bluestar I know of is at my house. And yes, it's >>> all other home rangetops.

    Actually something fancy and ancient for a stove. Griddle on one half and some sort of new in 1980 heating pad on the other. Either way, that's a get to not a half too. I've NEVER looked at a house that I'd keep the range from.

    Needs more than paint, but nothing is fuck me expensive outside of appliances but I'm captain overboard in pretty much every part of my life.

    Well, it's not open enough for me, I'd be taking down the stupid oven compartment. The kitchen should be an integral part of the family room IMO.

    That kitchen would get a sledge taken to it.

    I totaled the investment you'd have in the pieces you've stated = budget. Just to be safe I complied the list with used values so if you already owned it you could switch. And I don't get it. Even worse if it's all new....

    Now I just need the lottery. Was more a curiosity visit than real interest. Plus who doesn't like going to open houses on a boat.

    That's a strange way off addressing those goals with that amount of budget. Some more of the picture would help.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Although a skinny lot and $200k overpriced, it has an uber sweet boat parking spot behind the house and road in quiet water. Quiet enough I could winterize the boat on the lift and not even own a trailer. And you don't have to see your boats to have them block your view.

    I bought it as a dock and investment. I want to upgrade the dock portion now.

    Can't afford that even...which is why the downsize. Our house is ridiculous, we don't use any of it.

    Would go from nearly 5000 sq ft to 2400. Detached garage too

    Took the boat to an open house today. Could EASILY live there. Ours however isn't quite ready to list.

    Correlation Between Vent Mach and SPL

    If the behavior was linear and the same across all geometries and boundary conditions then of course monkies fly out of my ass.
