I really like the format of this video. Great for those interested in a step by step walkthrough of a DIY sub build. Oh and congrats on hitting 100K!

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

Thanks, much appreciated! The "mass market" version will come out down the road too for those that are looking for an introduction to the product rather than the deep dive.

@Offalotcr Год назад

Awesome video I have this box sitting in my garage waiting for me to put together 👍

Good luck with the build. Would love to see photos.

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

Correct!

@Quaddragon Год назад

How many hours of labor would you way went into the assembly of that flat pack?

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

I do flat packs in 2 weekends without the painting. Just on and off as things dry.

Did any glue drip into the painted port when you put the back panel on?

@JilesMcCoy Месяц назад

I am sure it did, But its nothing I was able to notice after the build. Just be careful and wipe down what you can.

How long do you let the glue dry in between pieces

@JilesMcCoy 22 дня назад

Depends on the pieces really. Some sections you can fit 3 or 4 or 5 pieces together before you let the glue dry. When I let it dry I usually let it go for an hour +.

@chrisway8672 22 дня назад

Thx, gonna start on mine tomorrow. Is this something that can be finished in 3 days, because I'm off for the next 3

@justinmanny86 8 месяцев назад

I can't believe I missed this kit! Lol Ive been waiting on parts express to restock their 18" kits but was kind of nervous because the enclosures are sealed and Im way more of a ported fan. Have you built both and would recommend one over the other? Would this vented enclosure work good with a Dayton 18" Ultimax? Lol Im sorry for the 21 questions. This video pumped me UP

@JilesMcCoy 8 месяцев назад

I love the GSG kits! I would go GSG over the other. 18” Ultimax is great in these. I have a build video for that specifically.

@dbbfishing2528 Год назад

Hi Jiles I got the FP10000G amplifier based on some of your videos, I have a couple questions, does it have a trigger or do I have to cut it off and on, secondly your fan modification how’s the long term sound quality? Also I’m having a problem with only one of the 4 subwoofers playing do you think it’s something to do with the speakon connection or something else

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

Hey! 1) No trigger. I use a power strip that turns it on and off when I turn my processor on. From Amazon. 2) Fans have been great. No impact other than less fan noise. 3) Hard to tell without digging in. Could be 1 of many many things. Always check cables first.

@dbbfishing2528 Год назад

@@JilesMcCoy thanks for getting back to me! Could you link the power strip? Yeah I’m try all the wires I hope when I carried them upstairs nothing came loose inside them but I’ll start digging, it’s my first time using speakon cables so I wasn’t sure if the cables on the inside would be opposite of +1 and-1

@dbbfishing2528 Год назад

@@JilesMcCoy could you link what you’re using to turn on and off the amplifier?

@bingdong8571 Год назад

I wish they would start selling flat packs in birch or plywood. The whole clamp thing is just dumb to me. Its cleaner and mdf might be incrementally better but i can throw that box together in an hour if i glue and screw it. Ive built a few boxes like this and they all turned out good. I tested and calibrated

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

The equivalent for mdf is glue and brad nails. I’d still clamp the final product till it’s dry though.

@ecapskcab8688 Год назад

Did you need to use gasket tape with the SI SQL 15 drivers? I have them on order with GSG and was curious. Thanks!

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

Ive not mounted them yet but I do plan to use gasket tape.

@rayjuarez5111 Год назад

Not sure if youve done a Mini Marty build but if you havent, do you have any plans to do one?

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

Not in the 2.1 version cab yet. I did in the older version though. Not sure what the next build will be.

@audfrknaveen2256 Год назад

The port looks very narrow for such a huge drivers. Im sure the vent air velocity will be very high. Did you observe any port noise ? And please let me know the port height. Is it like 2" ???

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

No chuffing on the 18 and 21. Ill know about the 15 when the weather is warmer.

@audfrknaveen2256 Год назад

@@JilesMcCoy thats a happy surprise for me 😊😊😊👍 Winisd simulations recommend much larger port to keep air velocity under 17m/sec or even 30m/sec. I'm delighted to know there is no port noise 😊😊😊. Thanks for the reply !!!! And very enjoyable videos man !!!

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

@@moveezy5591 I’ve never assembled one in a day. Between glue and paint drying it takes time. If you want to try to use Brad nails rather than clamps to hold things together and keep building while it’s wet you might be able to. You can do it over 2 days though.

Gsg audio says the tuning frequency of Marty cubes is 20hz, MBM is 26hz, and Mini Marty is 18hz. But they didn't mention if these are at F3, or F6, or F10. I tried to simulate in Winisd by estimating the air volume based on box dimensions and it looks like these tuning frequencies are not possible at F3. You have any idea of their published tuning frequencies are at F3 or F6, or F10??

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

Hi, I don't know the answer to this question. Anyone out there have any details about this?

@EverythingHomeTheater Год назад

@Jiles McCoy nope. He lost me at F3...hehe

@puccagigaru Год назад

Tuning frequency is a specification of the box design. F3 is the -3db frequency of the subwoofer (box + driver). In WISD you use a specific subwoofer to model so the results will be different for everyone.

@seanwarren5125 Год назад

It is like watching paint dry. You should have dry fit #4before skidding it in place. And for the love of GOD please wear shoes

@JilesMcCoy Год назад

Its really like watching glue dry. You should always dry fit all pieces before applying glue. You have been voted down by the flops + socks committee on the last point. And they do fund the channel... so....
