I am also very interested in scaling the MTL-4 box down to fit 15's, so that it fits through the doors better. I dont know much about "scaling" process, so any input is great. I am guessing that since 15/18 ratio is 0.833333, then all the box dimensions will get scaled by multiplying by that number. But i am not sure about that.
Its a start,but doesnt really work in the real world!Drivers have all sorts of specifications that vary. Fs Qts Vas etc.
need to build a PA capable of HIGH SPL levels for events under 1000 people. It will be used mostly for House music and Hardcore Techno in club-like settings, with an occasional outdoor. It needs to fit in my fullsize Chevy van. I have limited time and resources to dedicate to this project, therefore it must be easier to build than LABsub or Tubas, and cheaper than ServoDrives or Bassmax, yet able to come as close to their performance as possible (forget about below 40Hz). Any other design suggestions welcomed.
Probably Tuba24s or 1850 horns from speakerplans.com will fit the bill.
Id go moderate quality 15"s so the ported boxes are portable. If your thinking of making 8 or so ported boxes,id consider making LESS horn loaded enclosures.
Theres nothing magic about the MTL. Its just variant of resonant loading.
Overall, the MTL's got beaten by those other monster subs, but just the fact that they were in that competition is a good enough reason to wunder about them Maybe,maybe not. Often people measure gear simply because it is handy,and good to compare with. It doesnt necessarily mean it is in the same league.
