Digger8 Sub - diggity dig it all the way to 20Hz

[Wolf]

There really is no blanket statement saying these are the best small for-factor subwoofer. There are many options out there.
Maybe you should start a new thread and tell us your requirements, and some will be suggested to you.

So is this still the best small form factor sub build? It seems as if the parts are hard to come by these days.

Would you or anyone be able to give new woofer recommendations? It may be hard to source the woofer options mentioned here, and I was wondering what a couple drop-in replacements may be.

Thanks!

I dont have any stuffing and mine sound pretty awesome!

Awesome, thanks Kevin! One more panel to go so I can finally relieve my poor OS TM's from their full range duty!

So..... nearly 1.5 years later and I'm just about to finish my Digger8 but before I seal up the last panel, do I need to be putting in any stuffing?

So you would use the original enclosure measurements for best performance?

The Bash plate a amp doesn't have a back enclosure, so I doubt it takes up enough volume to worry about if you leave it out.

I am assuming this gentleman is AE Speaker... He posted in another Digger8 thread recently

Re: Digger8 Sub - diggity dig it all the way to 20Hz

I recently contacted AE about buying the PR for this project and they are currently producing some and was told it would take about a week to ship. I ordered one. My question is that I am building this for use in a vehicle so an amplifier will not be installed in the cabinet. Do I need to adjust the enclosure dimensions to account for this or should I just build it with the original dimensions of 9 X 14 X 20? Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

The digger 8's are pretty awesome. I would recommend the AR PR, that is what I went with in the end. But you could contact JSR and see what he thought about the PR you are wanting to use. Perhaps he would model it for you...

I am guessing you ment AE passive radiators. Actully i contacted them right away. They are somewhat local. They said they would put me on a waiting list. I have also heard horror stories about waiting 2-9 months.

I went with the CSS PR more excursion then the dayton and didn't want to wait for AE.

I'll probably just stick to 1cuft and play with the weights and do some measurements.

I'm sure it will but without modeling I can't say for sure.

Not to be a downer, but the apr10 would be more than sufficient.

Downer! lol

That kinda sucks. So, let me ask. With the APR12 and changing the box to .75cuft, would I still be able to get down to 25hz or so?
