OK, so I need some help but I do not seem to get much response here. And when i do, there is not much depth to the response. Are my questions to tecknical for this forum? Should I go to other DIY forums? I need you guys to help me out.
Now - I set up 2 speakers and attached the front baffel with masking tape. My friends dad has an old amplifier - ADCOM GFA5802. He let us use it because he thought it was bad. It has not been used for over 10 years. Well, I do not know if it is bad but it seems to work. We wired a IPOD in to it. and then a computer to play CD's. We have been listening to them for 3 days after school.
We played some Taylor Swift, the song International harvester, some cuts from "Brother where art Though" , Garth Brooks and lots of other stuff. Even soom rolling stones.
These speakers sound amazing. Nobody thought these would sound that good. I have never heard seperate bass guitar notes before. People singing sound like they are right there - this is scary. And violins sound like I am at a concert - my Mom takes me to listen to the Cincinnati Orchstra. And these speakers sound about the same everywhere in the room.
I want to finish them. Please, I need some help. I have some more fiberglass insulation. Would it hurt to add more behind the Woofer? Or where would it be best to add some more? Right now my port resonance is 41.78 hertz. I have a setup that can measure port resonance. What is the best frequency to tune these speakers to? Zaph says it should be 44Hertz also he says you can go to 50 hertz. He does not talk about lower. Whats the best?
