Unfortunately this means I'm cab-less until I get that speaker in. :( Maybe I can slap that old Peavey back in and temporarily seal the port... blah.

Unfortunately, I never made it to the port tuning stage. No use in tuning a busted speaker. You'll like this. When I knocked out the triangles filling the ports it was just layers of cardboard glued together. Another thing I thought I'd add. One of the wires going to the speaker cone was very...

I guess I'm not as stupid as I look! :D

Well, I finally got everything built, crossover and speakers installed, and one of my 3015LFs sounded terrible. I checked over all the connections, then I ran the single 3015LF direct to the amp at 8 ohms to rule out the crossover and it still sounded ugly. There is a staticy distortion at any...

Well, this is my plan for a simple 2nd order Linkwitz Riley crossover. Please let me know if I screwed something up or if I need to add anything else. :hmm: I may have asked this before, but I don't think I quite understood. When the crossover calculator (...

Wear ear plugs! :)

Hahaha, I love this guy. :D

I'm essentially building the same thing as alex, but a 2x15 with a 6" midrange. Ported with separate chambers for the 15s and the 6 sealed in the upper chamber because I'm retrofitting them into an existing 2x15 Peavey cab. I'm using the 3015LFs and the 6ND410. I easily got both off...

Thanks man, I replied with a random monologue that included my thoughts on the cab situation, life in general, and Indian curry...

Thank you. I was about to insert this here pistol into my mouth... :smug: Kiddin'...

I can look this up, if I knew what I was looking for... I know it's measured in mH, would that be the same as Le, Coil Inductance? The 6ND410 is .67 mH and each 3015LF is .92 mH.

Thanks Passinwind, all the support and suggestions I've received are more than helpful. I'll have to look at that impedance curve to better understand. I know I'll have to review it some more, but this is my tentative shopping list. I am using 2 3015LFs and greenboy's suggested 6ND410...

That did cross my mind, but I was concerned that the overall impedance of the cab would get screwed up. I was under the impression that the two way crossover would compensate for the fact that the woofers in parallel are at 4 ohms and the midrange is at 8 ohms. Maybe not so? I envisioned the...

And to think all I wanted to do was slap two new 15s in my cab... I think my head is going to explode. >:eek:< Where does the lpad control actually wire into the circuit?

Ah yes, I am just now fully reading the http://www.lalena.com/Audio/FAQ/XOver/ link. Sorry about that, my bad. Why does the 605Nd list with an impedance of 8ohms, but a Thiele Small impedance of 6 ohms? I am trying to calculate the Series Notch Filter for the midrange speaker.
