  • The Smiling Cyclops

    The Smiling Cyclops has one 10 Inch Pioneer TS-W258D2 and six 2" ports. The tuning of the box is approximately 30 Hz. The ports are such that the port noise is kept innaudible even with no rounding done on the port openings. Due to the large gap between the hole and the port I used high heat hot glue, thats what the junk is around the ports. I will be cleaning it up later and possibly veneering the whole thing later.

    Does the name fit? :D

      Should sound interesting to say the least. How much power are you going to put to it?

        looks like a pipe organ for the low notes.

            So that first pic must be an internal brace.
            I could see why people would think it would be a cool novelty to have the pipes external out the back/top for a "phantom of the opera" look. But no NAF on that I guess (Niece Acceptance Factor

              Different port lengths would be slick internally. So long as they average to the current length you're good IIRC.

              Helps break up pipe resonance.
