Title: DB 212 driver Post by Heavy-D on 12/19/06 at 18:43:53 Hi everyone new to DIY and really like the sub designs here and have a looooong way to go. I've decided to make a DB 212 for HT and music. The www.rythmikaudio.com/nonservo_product.htm#250basic"]Rythmik A250-Basic[/url] amp looks good was wondering which driver works best with it. I understand it's personal preference but I'd like to hear your opinions. Also what would be a good wood to make a DB 212? The two suggestions I've read are MDF and Birch any other options available? |

Title: Re: DB 212 driver Post by Heavy-D on 12/20/06 at 15:31:36 Thank you Adrian for your reply and for ignoring the wood question. I've since learned it's best to use non resonant wood. |
Title: Re: DB 212 driver Post by Adrian D. on 12/20/06 at 15:55:27 non-resonant = impossible. everything has a resonant frequency. maybe some very light wood will resonate high enough and will be out of the usable freq band of the sub. but that poses a diffrent problem. i personally don't like light subboxes. 3/4" mdf and bracing isn't enough for me :-* |

What kind of subs do you like? |
Title: Re: DB 212 driver Post by Adrian D. on 12/21/06 at 18:49:23 let's just say a single 10 is enough to move around a 1cf sealed box. :-* |
Title: Re: DB 212 driver Post by J_Rock on 12/23/06 at 14:53:22 Daytons are phonomenal price performers. If they are not working out for you, a mach5audio driver may suit your needs. Personally, the Deathboxes I have made have all been very rigid and quite dead- the only noise I ever get from them is the occasional port chuffing. Rounding the edges of the ports fixes that quickly enough though. |
