DD Audio 715f vs Deaf Bonce Sa-305 vs Gas Max S2-15

0 Upvotes

The subwoofers behave quite differently, but they're all in the same price range.

Which sub would you recommend? The DD is more for deep bass, and the Deep Bass is more for higher bass.

But overall, which would you recommend buying?

How to add a DSP

1 Upvotes

I apologize if this has been discussed 100x before, I searched but couldn't find much. I am in the planning stages of some 2 way 3D printed speakers, I posted them a few weeks ago. I thought I wanted to go with a passive crossover but now I am thinking active. I have an Apple TV for my source to an LG C6. I want to maintain volume control with the ATV remote. What is the easiest, most cost effective way to do this? I've looked at doing a MiniDSP and 2 Fosi V3 amps but I genuinely have no idea what I am looking for. It's a family living room tv/movies/music set up, so simplicity is the biggest goal, budget is second.

I just got a speaker rack of 6 6.5s and cup holder delete with 2 6.5s , any opinions on a direction to go for the loudest and clearest speakers ? Don’t have any spots for tweeters but if there is an alternative option to make them clearer what would that be? Budget of around 1500 for speakers and amp

Decided to make some speakers for my kid’s room

I wanted to see if I could combine hobbies while teaching my daughter about design and audio. So we set off on a journey to make speakers for her room. After much back and forth we settled on a star shaped speaker mostly because her other ideas far exceeded my technical skills. The speaker was printed in three parts (front face, rear face, and a pedestal) with Dayton Audio ND-65 for the drivers. Since these are little guys also added a passive radiator for low end extension.

Hello! After a looong process i have my subwoofer built, installed, banging and booming. The subwoofer is Alpine R2W12-D4 wired @2ohms and paired with MDS torque t5 amplifier. Enclosure volume is at 43 litres or 1,5 ft³ with tuning frequency of 34hz.

The enclosure is made from 30mm or 1 inch 3/16 MDF. All parts were CNC machined, and the enclosure finished with matt white paint and matt lacquer on top. The amplifier board is attached with rubber insulators/absorbers that are screwed to the enclosure with M4 thread inserts.

Really satisfied how it turned out and how well it plays!

Diy SB Acoustics arya speaker

Over half a year ago I bought the parts for the SB Acoustics arya speaker kit, without the cabinet. I had build the overnight sensations before and felt like building something a bit bigger without breaking the bank. I could only work on it some weekends but wasn't in a rush, so after about 6 months it is finished. Some small imperfections are visible, but mainly because i know they're there. I am really happy with how they look and sound, but I feel i should really upgrade my amplifier in the near future.

Now that my 8" mids arrived today (a month late) I can finally start playing with fitment. Portable 12" transmission line sub with air motion transformer tweeters.

Can't believe I've ran Orion subs for years and slept on these cobalt mids. They scream 😂

And fosgate crossovers from an old component set I had laying around.

Next update will be once its done, hopefully within the next couple weekends.
