Isk: You are the man!! I just bought 3 SoundStream T-4 10" subs. DVC 1 ohm. I should get them hopefully by Friday, if not by Tuesday.
iskwezm said:So take your calculations and figure it out and prove people wrong.
iskwezm said:Essentially,when you run multiple speakers,you getting the equal amount of cone surface area,so 4 8"= 32" of cone,thats why people say they hit harder then 2 12"s and so on.
lgndracer said:The area of an 8 is 50.24 sq inches, so four of them totals 200.96 sq inches. The area of a 12" is 113.04 sq inches, so two of them are 226.08 sq inches. So two 12" woofers still have more surface area than 4 8".
lgndracer said:the lower you design the 3 db downpoint of an enclosure/speaker system, two things happen.
Right,so why confuse people with too much information????lgndracer said:The purpose of a forum is to educate, and be able to back up claims with factual data, whether is be about audio or anything else. So if you think some of the people here have no clue what I am talking about, the absolute more reason to bring these things up so people can be educated.
Werent you dictating how to properly measure the surface area and correcting what you think is wrong information?So my point is "Educate, don't Dictate"
It wasnt a assumption, I know how long and what i've done.You are also making a mighty big assumtion that you have been in the Audio industry longer, and are more knowlegable then anyone on this subject
I dont claim to know it all because I dont,but if i do know something, i will give my opinion and people in this forum know i dont go around correcting people to make them feel dumb or make me look like a know it all.Not saying that you don't know more than I, just making a point. No matter what the subject is, I always know there are people who have been doing it longer, or can do it better than I.
. Never said it was a carrer,YOU assumed that,it was someting i fell into after many years as a master tech and also doing R&D for Ford Audio.Also, eight years in the audio industry is not really that long when you are in it as a career
So what kind of amp are you going to use???Your gonna run 3 10" dual 1 ohm VC right?Your gonna have to do some crazy parrallel/series wiring to get a usuable load on the amp.According to specs your gonna need 5.1 cu ft (1.7 each)and they recommend a ported enclosure with a 4X11.25 port.Do you have room for that?bynummustang said:Isk: you just made his chest about as flat as my 3rd grade girlfriend.
Now how about info on the T-4 SoundStream Sub? Tarantuala series?
I havent heard them,but they look like a SPL sub and will need the proper box and amp to get the most from it.bynummustang said:The amp is yet to be determined. I do believe I'll have the room. Just make the box deep. I'm most likely going to run 2 amps, one powering 2 of the subs and one powering the 3rd sub and the 2 6x8s in the back. I currently have a MA Audio Mono-block amp at 1000 watts. I'm not sure if i'm going to be able to use that, or just sell it.
One the other hand, Depending on how monsterous these subs are, I might only run 2 of them in my mustang, and run the other sub in my civic.
I'm still waiting to hear them to decide on box building, and placement.
Have you heard them in person?
