Disregard older comments regarding your vocal recording. Sounds like you fixed your lapel clipping issue. Keep up the great work!
Thank. I have anew camera so that could be it. I did swap lapel mics around ep 3. This video recording and editing stuff was and is still New to me.
@@hometheatergurus it’s what I do for a living so let me know if you ever have any questions.
@@NakeanWickliff wow.. thanks for the offer!
pro trick: you can watch movies at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching all kinds of movies during the lockdown.
@Kasen Reign yea, have been watching on Flixzone} for months myself :)
Dang! Nice lot to build your house on. But, that pond/swamp. I hope you have a plan for the mosquitoes. Please keep the vids comin'. And, I sure wish I had the funds to hire you to come up and set my POS low budget system.
Thanks. It's the Red River. 😁
No mosquitos from the River however I live in Louisiana so the misquote is basically our state bird.
@@hometheatergurus Ahh - rivers are much better than ponds. And, State bird. Just like Alaska. I hear the skeeters in Alaska are big enough to carry away small children. So, make bats and dragon flies be your friends.
Have you made a video or comments regarding the BEQ community? These guys are boosting the Sh*t out of the 5-20hz range in most movies. looks like older ones really need it (Alien, 2001 space odyssey etc.)
Not yet but I'm sure at some point I will.
I want to use this amp and software with a pair of Danley DTS10's. Best I know, the cabinet is tuned to 12hz. Will this same technique work? I haven't ordered the amp yet, and don't want to give up digging that low. Maybe a better option is the non-dsp version of the amp mated to a mini-dsp? I'm sure it is, but I'm trying to avoid the added complexity. Thanks so much.
Hi there. Great videos! So I’m using the nx1000d. Ill be running 2 separate 4ohm subs tuned to 20hz. How would I change the settings from what you explained here to accommodate 2 subs instead?
People really need to start building there own sub boxes. And specifically tuned boxes. I run 4 subs. 2 boxes 12” subs tuned at peak db 74hz. And 2 boxes 12” tuned peak at 32hz for lows.
Then you won’t lack bass in highs or lows.
It’s really the best of both worlds.
Trying to make a speaker that’s tuned high play lows is just foolish. Or flipped the other way around.
Let me know what you think.
Can you make a video on how to export mini dsp results to a beringer nx6000d amp. There is no video on RUclips showing you how to. Thanks
Unfortunately you can't. You have to select generic in rew and load them manually.
Hi HT Gurus, thanks for all the informative videos! I was planning on powering 2 DIY subwoofers with a Crown XLS 1002, which comes with a hardcoded Low-Pass filter. Crown Audio was quoted saying "There is an undefeatable 20Hz at 6dB / oct roll off HP designed in."
Do you know how I can model this filter into WinISD? I assume I use... FilterType=Lowpass, Subtype=?, Order=?, Q=?, and Cutoff=20Hz
I just wanted to see if this was enough to protect my driver, or if I need to add another one.
Hey great detailed video! So can I use the same setting you entered for a Behringer nx6000d with dsp. Just as a reference point to get my subs going? I’m using 2 Dayton audio ultimax 18s. I don’t want to connect my speakers with high frequency and ruin the new subs. The subs will be in a sealed box. Thanks for the content any info or suggestions will be appreciated thanks.
Did you figure this out? Im about to have the same exact setup but i'm brand new to this.
Also, did you put the ultimax's in a marty enclosure? Im about to put the cube together but I'll definitely need to put feet on it and Im not sure if I should just get svs isolation feet or what are the best feet to get?
Hi! Is it possible that imput is mono, output A is used for bas (up to i.e. 200Hz) and output B is used for upper speakers (from 200Hz to 20kHz)?
Thnx
hello, I have a problem with my Marantz NR1608.REW my Marantz does not see and I cannot take measurements, what could be the problem? I go from laptop with usb c to hdmi to marantz front hdmi. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Thank you.
Excellent 👌. . Should I use an AV receiver for proper audio output? Or seperate DSP with seperate amplifier?? I am curious. Since AV receivers are a lot expensive than a dsp and an individual 12 channel Amplifier
On a Behringer NX6000 (non dsp) running 2 Marty cubes with Dayton UM-18's how would you set the rear crossover switch? Lf, full range, or Hp? This amp will run off of a mini dsp though none of it is set up yet. I ask just for initial setup? Thanks.
Full range so it doesn't apply any filters. The minidsp will take care of it.
@@hometheatergurus Thank you so much.
Hi, I did the exact procedure like what you did here but one question, usually for subwoofer we need Low pass filter instead of HPF, I don't understand that !? why HFP ?
The lpf is set in the avr (Lfe lpf). That's the top extension. Hpf sets how low it extends.
@@hometheatergurus yes I set LFE to 120hz in AVR thank you. My previous amplifier was simple one without dsp and the sound was more punchy, but with this nx6000d the bass is almost melted into the sound.
@@pooyahesabi you're welcome
I am gonna build The Hammer (in EU), if I want to use a Behringer NX amp, should I go for NX1000/3000 or 6000 for 1 Hammer sub? Love your vidoes btw.. Looking forward to follow your new HT progress
Thanks!
I'd use one 3000 and run a hammer on each channel. It's designed to use very little power to get quite loud as it's designed to have a linear response in the enclosure with no boosting needed.
So in a nutshell I can copy the minidsp settings manually into my nx3000d amp?
If I'm using the Behringer or another amp with built in DSP, is the MiniDSP no longer necessary?
Yes the minidsp would not be needed.
First off, I have just recently discovered your channel and am really enjoying the content. I'm a long time amateur speaker designer/builder with the emphasis on music/stereo. I was wondering where do you get source material with extension basically into the inaudible infrasonic region AKA below 20 Hz? That's turntable rumble territory for us two channel guys. I'm not doubting it's out there, but that was always one of the big benefits of CD and I thought most digital....band width of 20-20,000 Hz...no filter required to deal with bass reflex unloading. I'm just wondering what you use for a source. Learning lots of new stuff here!
Hey, and I see you're from Lousy-ana close to the Red....Me too....S'port/Bossier area.
When you say "tuned" you should talk about Thiele/Small resonant frequency, or Fs.
Tuned is the correct terminology for setting a hpf. The fs (free air resonance) doesn't dictate where a driver is necessarily tuned btw. This sub for example is tuned well below the drivers Fs. For this video mentioning anything other than the enclosures tuning frequency is irrelevant. Feel free to check out the winisd video where we use the parameters to design the enclosure.
I’m confused I follow the steps in the video and my amp still plays full range sound please help
This video is to set a HPF which is at the bottom end. Your AVR will set the crossover to the speakers and the LFE filter. You don't filter the upper end in the Behringer unless it's to block noise.
Is it possible to build subwoofer with a relatively small footprint (10”/12” woofer) that goes below 15hz and would something like this Behringer be able to power it? Thanks.
if you make them isobaric and make a enclosure of like 80 liters in total excluding the wood and ports yes
(it goes to 14,4 +/-1dhb so dip and peak in the frequenty response are 2db apart)
problem is port noise might pccur below 20hz because at 101db at 20hz the wind in the air velocity in the port is 15m/s (so there is hearable port noise) at this volume level the drivers only take 128 watts (and this is with a 80cm long port (about 30 inches and about 3 inches in diameter)
Im trying to figure out why i see guys buying dsp versions of amps like you? You have an external dsp? I must be missing something?
Not sure but I rarely see that. Generally you see one or the other. It's possible some may buy an amp with dsp but then later want some features only on stand alone units. You'd have to find someone who has this and ask them but the likely have a valid reason.
Wondering if the NX3000Ds hz response is tailored to 20-20? Could this be why the response below is not notated. Just like a speaker an amp will need to work harder producing seemingly useless content below 20 hz robbing it of efficiency.
No they can go much lower that's why they are used for Hovereze platforms
This is only for ported subs, correct?
Yep
@@hometheatergurus do you have a video on the dsp settings that will work with a sealed box 4cf
hi,can i use crown x1502 amplifier instead of Behringer 3000?since crown is 100$ cheaper in my place. if i use an amp without dsp,then do i have to purchase minidsp?in which one shall i set the hpf?in crown amp or in mini dsp?
If the crown has the power you need, sure! Google for bench test.
I'd set all filters in a minidsp.
@@hometheatergurus ya crown x1502 is rated at 525watts in stereo at 4 ohms. i am planning to run 2 hammers with this single amp. is that ok? also crown amp has some dsp function,is that enough or should i purchase minidsp? av receiver---mini dsp---crown amp---subwoofer, is this the correct path ?is minidsp 2*4 is enough or mini dsp 2*4 hd is needed?what is the difference
Manufacturer specs aren't truthful. Search for bench test for real world specs. It can be as much as half what the manufacturer specs as is the case for behringer.
@@hometheatergurus yes i read that they fudge numbers in Behringer's reviews. but for crown, i cant get any real numbers except with this review.
www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/review-and-measurements-of-crown-xls-1502-amp.6062/
it shows 336 watts without clipping,is that its power?could you please help me,i am not clear about it. crown + minidsp hd or Behringer 3000dsp both costs same please help me which to choose
@@hometheatergurus some people in forums mention that behringer and crown amps roll of significantly below 20hz,is it true? can we get output below 20hz?
