JL stealth box update?

I will see if I can get it drawn up today for you guys. I have been really busy with work so slow days when I can goof off are far and few between.

For Audiophile sound I do highly recommend a parametric EQ so you can further attenuate the mid bass from the sub. The EQ actually tunes the front chamber of this enclosure which in this case is the boundary between the front of the subwoofer and the trunk floor which is approximately .5 cu ft so essentially its an 4th order bandpass enclosure with a vent instead of a port. I cut all frequencys above 60Hz with the EQ and my crossover which is cut at 60Hz/24db so the cut off is sharp with no overlap.

Note! This is not conventional practice but after hours of trial and error this works best in this application due to the enclosure design and maximizing its output and cone control! I am running over 500wrms to the sub and I have never bottomed out the driver.

Just make sure your fronts mains are capable of playing down to 60Hz and use LOTs of power (100 to 150 wrms or more) if you want that strong up-front bass. I also used the EQ to boost the midbass of my fronts. The result is like having 8 " full range woofers in your doors! and Awesome SQ! Friends have no idea I have a subwoofer, just killer mains until I tell them.
