Hello guys
This will be my first post on your excellent forum. I've done a search and I know "more" :bouncy:
I have got my hands on a pair of JBL 136hs drivers and I am entertaining the idea of building a pair of s2s clones for my HT.
I know that they don't go as deep is as the "popular" woofers like SVS, Velodyne and DIY Dayton's, but the saying is that the bass they do produce makes doves cry - and that's what I'm into!
I've been googling for a while now (maybe I am not asking the right questions), and there aren't much info out there, reviews are especially lacking.. I am missing some pieces of the puzzle, and I was hoping that I could find someone with first hand knowledge on the s2s or the JBL 136HS driver.
I do have two cab options:
Nr. 1 157 ltrs of effective volume, 2 ports: Vd 4,3 inches and Vl 19,2 inches should give -3 dB at 37 Hz.
Nr. 2 125 ltrs of effective volume, 2 ports: Vd 4,3 inches and Vl 24,8 inches should give - 3 dB at 40 Hz.
Are there better options?
I will be satisfied with it going flat to 30 Hz and -3 or 5 dB at 20 with EQ. But Flat to 20 Hz would be perfect.. Could this be done?
Can you link me to a thorough s2s build thread? This would be just awesome!
The High Pass Filter.. What would you recommend?
Some words on building and tuning the cabinet would be very appreciated.
Anything would be awesome :dj-party:
