Gold Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 3806 Registered: May-04 | Bracing helps due to the added rigidity of the enclosure. Fiberglass is used for both sealing the enclosure and also adding strength, especially in the corners. You could add sound deadening to the walls of the enclosure if you'd like, in addition to polyfill. You could also go aperiodic or infinite baffle |

Only works on cars with trunks unless you're into cutting holes in a car. http://www.maximacar.com/aperiodic.htm http://www.elitecaraudio.com/article.php?sid=18 You are using a resistive membrane to control cone motion, as opposed to an enclosure, your sub doesn't sound "boxed". Control is excellent, transient response is excellent, SQ is top notch, above sealed, ported, and so on due to the flattening of the resonance of the sub. |
