4T build question

Post  Fast Cars on Sat Jun 27, 2009 1:23 am

Hi Jed,
I have a question about the 4T layout. It concerns the internal solid brace that is the back of the Midrange and Tweeter section. On the drawing it shows that the vertical solid brace is situated 7 1/4 inches from the back panel of the speaker. Horizontial brace Type A has a cutout opening to the rear chamber. As per the drawing this would place the solid internal brace (rear of midrange & tweeter section) over top of the brace Type A opening by an 1 inch. Should I move the solid brace an inch forward towards the front panel of the midrange & tweeter section so that it is not over top of the opening of brace type A? This would make the midrange & tweeter chamber smaller. Or is this how you want it, with the solid brace resting on the inch wide border edges of brace type A cutout and the front of the solid brace resting on the very edge of the Brace Type A cutout section (which would form the rear panel of the midrange & tweeter section, this would have to be very precise so there are no air spaces at the edges, I quess the gap could be filled with silicone or something)?

Thanks for your help

Keep the midrange chamber the same volume and adjust the cutout of the brace. I'll update the drawing to fix that issue.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

I looked at the drawing again, and I'm not seeing the problem. Is this the cabinet drawing I sent you? Yours would be the same without the grid. It's 7 1/4" from the back edge of the solid brace and inside edge of the cabinet wall, not the edge of the opening of the cutout. Therefore the difference or length of the cutout for the opening is 6 1/4". Click on the image to enlarge.

Hi Jed, yes that is the diagram you sent me. Let me take a look at this again. Unfortunately I'm pressed for time right now but I'll take another look at it over the weekend and talk to my CNC table operator again, he was the one that brought it to my attention.

Thanks Franco
