WSP 26s subwoofer

[Delatorious]

Hello

I own a WSP 26S and currently this driver is playing in a 90 ltr Br case.
With a active module (powersound XXL 90 watt RMS @ 8 ohm)

Because it's in my chamber, (3 x4 mtr) it's kinda big.
The sound isn't really nice, it seems that every low frequency witch it produces, sounds the same.

My plan,

Build a smaller case, I'm thinking of 60 ltrs

But i would like to keep the frequency sub-low (30 - 38 hz)
So maybe bandpass? or is the driver not suited for that use?

If anyone has an idea of experience, I'd like to hear that.

you can of course build the case smaller
60 liters maybe OK (I did not simulate this)
every freeware program can help you there

when you are dissatisfied with the sound maybe you could simply build a closed box, or a very very low tuned BR (maybe 25Hz)

the BR will probably not bring much boost for the maximum volume because of the small case-size

I would build a closed box
But remember: the maximum volume compared to the old 90Liter BR is limited

That is true, but I don't mind if it will go 5 Hz less low, because my room is small, so only my neighbours will hear the 25 Hz :P

There is a concept, the Pyramide III, witch contains a WSP 26s in a 50 Litre case F³ 35 Hz

Maybe this is a kinda 'Noob' theory, but everything I build between 50 ltr (pyramide III) and 80(Manhattan) litres should be good?
Because a sealed box is a safe and stable princip(?)
