  • Tubes installed, caps installed, wire installed, and subs installed so ya know I had to wire an amp up real quick & get it to make some noise. Wouldn't have been able to sleep til I did. In this video you're gonna get to see and hear ProjectSPL turn on and play for the first time. Make sure to like & subscribe. TermLab testing coming soon on the next episode.

    Watching on a smartphone which doesn't care to play frequencies below 160Hz... I couldn't hear it! And when you spoke I couldn't hear you! That tone masked all sounds and effectively muted you! LOL! I believe in Project SPL! Great work! Stay motivated.

    What is the significance of the tubes inside the box? Idk why but I really like it. Obviously, I'm not an aficionado. I used to make bass tubes for speakers of all sizes as a kid but I've never seen a build like this before. I really wanna know how much it helps. I'm currently in design mode for my 2 door Blazer, looking for ideas. My benchmark is The Alphard Blazer.

    • @tdannerth
      @tdannerth 5 лет назад

      I'm baffled by this entire build myself. I've always been a simple system guy, since I lease my vehicles. But I watch a lot of these build outs, and this is the first one I've seen like this. I mean the subs look sub par (except for the face on them), compared to what I was expecting since, you know... Sundown. 4 unported enclosures, mounted in a massive box? Resonating chamber? I feel like I'm having Higgs-Boson episode or something.

  • @justinmurphy2227
    @justinmurphy2227 5 лет назад

    God please don't take this wrong but you said to not skimp and to make sure all connections are perfect so this is what I would do. This would add maybe $40 to the build.
    I would use wire ferrules and marine grade heat shrink to hold the ferrules in place. This makes sure all strands are being used and making the same contact patch.
    Then, nut inserts for mounting the subs. Pre drill and insert the nut insert. Then you can remove the sub 100 times without damaging the wood. They make deep ones if you're worried about anything. Plus machine screws can be used. They have more threads and are stronger.
    These 2 things will make life easier if you have to replace a sub.
    You can take a sub out. Put the screws back in without stripping out the wood. And then you can just pull the wire ferrule out and push it right in the new sub terminal....not having to worry about twisting the wire or strands sticking out.
    Chances are you WILL blow a sub.
    Just wanted to suggest. Love this build bro!
    You're old school and I love it!

    • @UnofficialAudio
      @UnofficialAudio  5 лет назад +1

      Those are horrible ideas and wouldn't work well in this build. The fact you even mentioned them tells me you can't have much experience with those products. I like wire ferrules and use them for some things but they would suck for this. Same with the inserts.

    • @justinmurphy2227
      @justinmurphy2227 5 лет назад

      @@UnofficialAudio and I figured it would be negative but I didn't honestly think it would start out with the words horrible ideas and then and then going to make me feel like a complete idiot when obviously I spent a lot of time thinking about how to phrase this in a way that I didn't seem like I was trying to correct you or be condescending. You literally sounded like what everyone hates to get in the comment section. I guess even if it was not the best idea I would never talk to someone like that that had tried to help but then again I would have been more thoughtful especially being the representative of a product line.
      I run Sundown products in several of my builds and enclosures right now and have recommended them numerous times but not anymore if this is how genuine suggestions and help are met from the company itself.
      I could not imagine Rockford Fosgate or Alpine or even another small company would have responded this way especially when my first words were already on the defensive by stating God please don't take this the wrong way. I was hoping my instincts would be wrong. How in the world could what I have suggested been horrible?
      Maybe I just have a ways to go before I know everything. Sorry that I took away from your valuable time to have to read it...

You're going to tell me that other SPL competition vehicles use wood screws, sorry decking screws, and bare wire has the best process for installing subwoofers in an SPL based system?

  • @themoose2350
    @themoose2350 5 лет назад

    Hey Deric, couple of questions. Back in the days we used to have stereos that had lows you could hear for blocks, now not so much. My question is, did the speaker designs/specs change? I remember in the 90s boxes needed to be made huge 2 cu.ft. or more for some of the more powerful speakers of the days. Now boxes are small as hell. My question was spurred by the size tubes you used to mount the subs in your bandpass box. I'm enjoying watching the build of project spl! Oh my first projection helped build (because I was in woodshop and had the tools to do the work) was stuffing 4-12 inch atomic subwoofers (long since gone) in a yugo for a stereo competition in 1991. He didnt win but he broke the windshield. Lol. So that's why I wonder how so many boxes are built small. I remember spec sheets saying how big the box should be. Does that happen anymore. Have not bot subs in about 10 years. Would love to get a set of SA subs one day.keep up the cool videos sorry if this was all over the place.

    • @martinmi5
