Hey yo,
So i have just finished and set up my new MLTL Bison cabinets with GPA 604-8H-III and crossover. They are not 'finished' but good enough for listening. The plans were provided by the original designer, and i committed to not sharing the dimension. The plans can be purchased.
The box is roughly 10.4 ft^3 (290 litres). They are big. The port is currently facing down. It is 6" in diameter and the legs are 6" tall.
The carpenter didn't follow my plan for bracing, so it is a little under braced at the minute. and I have not finalized the stuffing inside.
My apartment isn't great for hifi. The right side opens to a dining room and the left side is stuck in a corner.
My initial impressions are not great. There is a serious lack of bass. Much less than when the same drivers were in a smaller BR cabinet. I am able to compensate with EQ. However, I was hoping for more, and I am turning to this forum for help.
Is the down firing port the issue? should the legs be longer?
I can move the port to the rear and still be true to the design...
As i mentioned, the box is likely under braced and under damped. I am hoping to get a few measurements this weekend.
Thanks in advance.
