    Proper bass tuning for the Seas L18

    I have spent the last year with the Seas L18 in a .5 cu ft enclosure from Parts Express as depicted by John Krutke on his website. He later mentioned that if he had to do it again he would increase interior volume.

    That said, what would your recommendations be for internal volume/tuning? I'm going to have custom floorstanding cabinets made, and I'd like to get it right.

    TIA,

    Neil

    How about 16L @ 45hz. Does that make any sense?

        I traced Zaph's infinite baffle FR and Impedance measurements and simulated the infinite baffle with unibox (using a 1000L sealed box). Then simulated the FR...

        SEAS L18 phase plug
        by TheD
        Hi,

        I am about to start making some speakers with the SEAS L18 and I was wanting to "jazz" the look of them up a bit.

        One way I was thinking of doing that was to repaint the phase plugs, but I am not sure if they are removable or not (without breaking the driver)....
