If you really think you want response in the 20 Hz range, you either need a few 18s (those Mach 5 IXL-18.4s are supposed to get really low, but you'll need some crazy mid-bass drivers, as they have a really high inductance, so I've heard), or one of these - http://www.rotarywoofer.com/. Take a look at the price. I remember seeing something about an installation in a car some where. Here it is:http://www.eminent-tech.com/randd2.html Try emailing him to see if you could buy a prototype or two. Hope you're rolling in money. If your neighbours don't like you now, getting that will probably get you on a hit list. I doubt you really want response around 20 Hz, though. You're just shaking the car, then. 30 Hz is pretty low. |

Silver Member Username: •cam•Post Number: 981 Registered: Nov-06 | Well I don't think there is a 12" sub that will do what you want. Probably double digit peak to peak excursion would be necessary, it would probably sound like sh!t, be ridiculously expensive, etc. If you have no budget just get a rotary woofer. Why are you talking about having too much money in an enclosure if you have no budget? Why are you talking about Infinity if you have no budget? If you have no budget, get 4 AudioPulse LMS-Ultra 18s, a big SUV, wall it with 8 PR's at 20Hz, and throw 20kW at them. Don't forget to post vids. |

Post Number: 5574 Registered: Jul-06 | There is no "big sub" that's going to fit in such a tiny box.You say you have no budget but you don't want to throw out a box that you "have too much into"?That doesn't make sense,if you don't have a budget just get a new box and a bad a ss sub.Get yourself an RD Audio Super Heavy Weight,I think they cost anywhere from 650 used to 1,000 new. |
