custom built these a long time ago from stamped steel baskets and spl style recone parts

they will take a beating and should move as far as the surround will stretch great for higher power setups where you dont want port noise or the big port or just dont have the room

i can help design a box if you need it too

basket

cone / surround

1/4" bolt sandwiching 2 1/4"x 3" plexi glass disks on each side of the cone so its see through

(can be seen in the 3rd pic)

and a bunch of weights to get different tuning

(can be seen in the 4th pic)

if you know what they are cool if not look here

or if you don't want to read they are a port in essence just a big long port

usually they are so you can tune really low in a small box and not get any port noise

i used both of them with 1 15" rockford power hx2 and it did almost the same numbers with the weights attached at 28 hz as it did at 47hz with no weight attached

both right around a 147 with 2 mtx 81000d's in my crx oh and that was behind the factory hatch cover in a 36"w x 14't x 16" deep wedge shaped box not exactly a good setup for a crx but i wanted to try them out and i have to say they were sweet

only problem i ever had was they were not totally vertical so under high excursions they rocked if they had the tuning weight on them and they started to pull the cone from the surround

im asking 150 for the pair shipped with the (4) weights i have

well they list that frequence response so I will try to use it. Also, does it help to have the marine speakers in their towers for such a thing...

Yep. It would be a little over 3 wired in series, but that’s fine.

Agreed. I was actually thinking of building a 3-way passive and I compared the cost to a Dayton DSP and it makes no sense to go passive.
