    Try this - put the pic inside the enclosure and use REW to measure the response to sine sweep starting from below the box resonance frequency. Look at what REW is reporting for THD. Increase the power for each sine sweep until the THD hits say 20% in the passband. That will give a really good idea of what to expect when the design is scaled up...

    When you measure the FR of the box I'd recommend to move the mic as close as possible (1 cm) to the source and measure the driver and port separately. In REW you can sum the two responses and the result will likely match very well with your simulation

    • @Grommet2007
      @Grommet2007 Před rokem +1

      You can also do the "transfer function" approach to remove the "room" from the measured frequency response. The approach is similar to measuring cabin gain, except now you're going to use the measurements to use REW to remove the "cabin gain" (room effect) from the measured response to obtain a simulated anechoic response.

    If you placed an circuit that would limit the power at 15W. That would make it where you would not need to watch the power meter. If you know a little about Shell, you can setup a simple script. Place a camera on the power meter, where you can add it in the postproduction. You would only need to turn it up then back down. If you was to write a script, it would be able to roll the volume up, then down, with the same velocity every time, and you would need to only press one button, unless you needed to abort. The script could also be set to recognize, when you get to mechanical limits. That means that you could set a limits to where you would be within a certain safety factor that would allow for the actual mechanical limits not to be exceeded, and then every run would be maxed out, with the furtherest possible limit without leaving out of the clean outcome (hopefully that makes sense.). You could also place a red light near the power meter, which would be lit incase mechanical limits were reached, and then a second light would indicate a run up to the max power. This is crazy. I understand that it is only maths. But still. Keep them coming.

    So, already loving the hell out of this, but, for the second season and in the future, there should be a generic model of a car, preferably with real materials used in cars so the scaling would be as close to what it could be in real life, meaning something like ; 4 doors, rubber seals, scaled thickness of metal of the chassis, interior damping and isolation, vents and other stuff that makes a car, with 3d printing, it should be possible, this would take it to outerspace type of quality! As you mentioned, as it is now, its a fully prepped spl cabin with basically no leaks anywhere, but thats a really small percentage of real world uses, it all reminds me of a video of veritasium i watched recently with scaled boats and the biggest controlled wave maker, same idea as this one! Make a scale model in a scale environment and Take the video slowed down by a considerable margin until it fits real world scenarios, it was unbelievably real how it turned out, and to think, its also fluid dynamics! Water is fluid!

  • @johnofsometrades405
    @johnofsometrades405 Před 10 měsíci

    So, I want to make my own TV stand with a subwoofer and components. But what I am looking for is the absolute best sounding bass, as low as possible for the subwoofer but not sacrificing too much range. I like the deep rumble for movies. The subwoofer I'm thinking about using is a 8" Sony. It's currently in a powered cabinet, but it has the two plastic ports like 1" in diameter and about 2" long. I'm hoping a custom box might give it something a little better for down low. What enclosure would you recommend best? T-line? Sealed? Or a ported of a variant? I know sealed is great, maybe a little larger to allow for it to flex easier, but I also know free air is also supposed to have great range without box influence. I know t-line can make a sub louder with less, but then so can some ported. I plan on also combining it with a 4" to put under the seat for a little feel and kick. The 4" is decent in range when I plugged the port and made it sealed. The 4" is an Altec Lansing. I know the opposite would be best, but I don't have the space to fix the 8" under the seat. I was also thinking about a down firing ported or sealed with the components on the sides and maybe a center speaker as well. What do you think?

    Lol I expected that massive peek. I tuned higher for this very reason. I have a -6db at 25hz* with about a 14db per octave roll out the box will be very peeky and will not scale well as it's taking advantage of the speed of sound that can't be scaled without putting the test in a vacuum and purging with argon..

      @ZoeyR86 Před rokem

      @Sirus na I do acoustics, most speakers Design, I have a very solid idea how the test setup was going to react when you scale down you can't offset the speed of sound. The higher the frequency, the tighter the compounding wave is, and the higher the efficiency becomes. If he made it a 1 door + 1 window open, the peek will get even worse and shift up another 80-90hz at scale the same change in a car is less drastic this is all because of the "cone to air" efficiency shift this is why small tweeters can hit crazy high output
