Hi All, I've been asked so many times about my HTS set-up !! I've already given the info on all most all the components except for the Sub
!! Well thats why this thread !! This is my DIY Sub ! its based on the 200W RMS plate amp that was developed for the DIY purpose !! it has the transistor type output devices with DC-Detect and short circuit protection Via Relay !
The Pre or the active filter is based on the Famous 455D Ic and does the filter job quite effortlessly!! There??s also the provision for changing the Phase, the other regular features like frequency and volume control!
The box is my Fav folded horn type! This time it is double fold with the total of 1.2 meter line (the straight line) length!! it was necessary to go for a double fold to keep the box dimensions small ( not that now its any smaller but would??ve been much bigger otherwise),the wood is particle board (didn??t use MDF for various reasons) and is of 24MM thickness !! I have also made a special chamber ( separate box at the back) for the plate amp to sit
! I didn??t want put it in like other commercially available !! I wanted it to be separate and wanted to isolate the Amp section from the rest of the cabinet !
The Driver is from a company in Taiwan called ??SO-GOOD? they are the OEM??s for many major brands
!! So selected that driver (had a tough time getting hold of it though), the cone material is of Kevlar with Carbonfibre reinforcement!! And the voice coil is Very high temperature ASV type with 16 layers, the Dia is 3?
!! Magnets are 165MM double with chrome plated top and bottom plates
! As I found out later that It was clone of a very famous driver from the US!! Eminence LAB 10, this is a solid driver which is preferred by most of the pro folks to build similar horn loaded subs !! so in way I was lucky that I got the similar driver !! Am not claiming that this is 100% same as the original, So critics can rest in peace! but for the price the performance is something I think tell what not enough !! it is that good !!
I think I??ve all the details of it, If I??ve missed any please do let me know or ask me !! will be glad to add the missing info !!
Very Very Important Request!! The reason for me not to put this project before was, the finishing of the sub (not any great or decent) ! So I know the finishing sucks but can??t help it or couldn??t help it!! So please avoid commenting about it as I myself have done the honors!!
Even after this if someone wants to or has to comment on it! Then let the Fun Begin!!
Regards.
