Well, my ABC box for my RFP 2208, it has better sq than a sealed across a wider bandwidth with about 75% of the output of an all out spl ported box. I LOVE it!!

I've been considering trying one of these for the fun of it, but I was wondering, how's the 'punch' from this design, like the kick drum reproduction, how does that aspect of the SQ compare to sealed?

Never posted to this thread before, but the first time I saw it (it was on 24 pages, I think) I read ALL of it. Sounds like a really interesting box design. Took me a good few hours over a couple of days to read it all. Anyway, I bet it makes at least another page this time around [Smile]

BUMP!

By the way, I'd like to build one for my Infinity Perfect 12.1D. Ideas as to how to get started? Or is this not a good sub for this type of box...

ok.. didn't go thru the whole 24 pages.LOL
is there a rule to start from when building an abc box ? do you calc out a ported box tuned to what you want it at and then build the half sized box with all equal ports ?

Thanks for any info, may just try this.

Ok... first of all, the basicas have been discussed all throughout this thread. You think that out of 24+ pages you'd be the first to ask "how to get started?" LOL!!!!!
