RECOMMENDED

ENCLOSURES

This manual outlines

two

specific

typesofenclosures

that

provide

distinctly different

performance.

This

sectionisto

help you decide

which

typeisbest

for

your

application.

SEALED

ENCLOSURES

Sealed

enclosures

are

the

simplesttobuild.

The

most

important

part

of

building a sealed

enclosureisto

make

sure

that

the

enclosureisairtight.

Using glue and

some

typeofsealantonail

seams

will

ensure

solid

construction

and

prevent

air leaks.

The

box

volume will directly impact

the

performanceofthe

speaker. Larger

enclosures

will provide flatter

response

and

deeper

bass

where

smaller

boxes

will provide a bump

in

the

response

curve

and generally higher

output

for

greater

SPL.

BUILDING

AN

ENCLOSURE

To

work

properly,

the

wallsofthe

enclosure

mustberigid and

not

flex

when

subjectedtothe

high

pressures

generatedbythe

speaker's

operation.

For

optimum

performance,werecommend

using 3/4" MDF

(Medium Density Fiberboard) and internal bracing.

The

enclosure

should

be

glued

together

and

secured

with nailsorscrews.

CALCULATING

VOLUME

Calculating volumeismerely a

matterofmeasuring

the

dimensions

in

inches and using

the

formula: H x W x D divided by 1728 (cubic feet).

See

block

below.

Advantages ofsealed enclosures:

High

Excellent

for

quality

Extended low frequency

when

comparedtovented

VENTED

ENCLOSURES

Vented

enclosures

vary only from

the

sealed

enclosureinthatavent

or

portisaddedto"tune"

the

enclosure.

The

enclosures

recommended

are

designed

for

great

overall

performance.

Larger boxes

tendtobe easy

to

tunetolower

frequencies while medium and small boxes

are

easier

to

tunetohigher frequencies.

The

vented

designisless linear

in

response

than

the

sealed

box

but

with noticeably

more

output

at

the

tuning frequency.

I

728

If

two

facing sides

areofuneven length, add

them

together

and divide by

twototake

the

average. Using this

number

will

give you

the

volume

without

the

necessityofcalculating

the

boxinsections and adding

the

sections

together.

The

thicknessofthe

baffle material

reduces

the

internal

volume

so

this

mustbesubtracted

from

the

outside

dimensions

to

determine

the

internal volume.

The

speaker

itself also

reduces

the

internal volume.

The

amountofair displaced by each modelislisted

on

the

specification

sheet

and should alsobesubtracted

from

the

gross

volume calculation.

Advantages of

vented

enclosures:

Higher average

output

than

sealed

Tuning frequency can

be

easily adjusted by changing

port

Deep

bass

with

lower

power

WIRING

CONFIGURATIONS

By

varying

the

wiring configurationofyour

speakers you can

create

an

impedance load

to

match

your

system.Altering

the

wiring configurations

gives a range

of

options for impedance loads. Series, Parallel,

or

Series-Parallel wiring configurations

are

different techniques for wiring

speakers

that

provide different loads. Series configurationisa string

method

where

speakers

are

wired endtoend. Parallel configuration

uses

twoormore

speakers wired across

common

terminals.

Series-Parallel configuration combines both techniques.

Choose

the

wiring diagram

that

correspondstothe

the

impedanceofyour

CROSSOVERS

There

are

two

operational typesofcrossovers, passive and active.

Passive crossovers (coils

or

inductors)

are

placed on

the

speaker leads

between

the

filter

that

separates

the

optimum subwoofer performance,

we

recommend using an active
