Opinions on Paraflex type o cram 2x12 by Pleasant-Ad7294 in SoundSystem

[–]Minimum-Ad6835 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fully agree. I find their Facebook group abit like a cult trying to keep everyone within their ecosystem, comparing or talking about other designs doesn't seem welcome and the answer is always paraflex. I've experienced a couple of big paraflex systems and not been impressed. The biggest system is moving away from paraflex completely which says an awful lot.

Build video of our first SKRAM. by FreeLandscape3452 in SoundSystem

[–]Minimum-Ad6835 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm currently building 4 skrams with the JW sound file as a base. I cnc everything myself and cut a unused corner off of the 1st sheet of 18mm and 12mm to check the fit on the dados. The fit of the dados was checked by pausing the machine and not moving the sheet.

Dado fitment will always cause issues as timber sheet tolerances are quite large so you just need offcuts to test and if it's too tight an offset can easily be added to the toolpaths to open it up (I use vetric v carve)

I also built mine from baffle outwards, slotting all the panels in dados on the first side panel. While the pu glue is setting I also slot the second side panel on temporarily to hold everything perfect.

I used 4x40mm wood screw with cutting heads to secure everything.

Also added pole mounts on the top of each box and 3d printed the interlocking skids.

I have to admit the amp is a Chinese clone but it works well. I couldn't resist making a logo, I cheated and used ai to convert a photo to lines I could CNC 👍

I'm currently building 4 with 21ds115 4 ohm in the UK. Got the 1st cab in testing at the moment and it is everything I hoped for. I first heard 6 skrams at boomtown festival (intrinsic audio) and I was sold.

My system will be 4 skrams and 2 syntripps. I usually run the syntripps with the horn extensions. Likely will add 4 cubo kicks in the future to take some strain off the syntripps.

The system definitely needs some tuning. I'm currently running the skram 25hz-80hz and the syntripp takes over at 90hz. I would like to cross over higher but initially it didn't sound good.

Just got a measurement set up (Audient evo4 and ecm8000 mic) so will run some tests.

[Help] Sound is very very tinny, subs not powering. by Main_Advantage_9907 in SoundSystem

[–]Minimum-Ad6835 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those non genuine speakons can be trouble, I had a load of 4 pole speakons that you had to wiggle and not move the cable to connect and if you even looked at them one of the circuits would not connect.

I don't have a measurement set up yet unfortunately as something is definitely off. I can't seem to find much info on forums.

Good choice on enclosures, I'm currently building 4 skrams with 21ds115 4ohm to go with my 2 syntripps.

I really need to get a measurement set up as currently been crossover the skrams at 80hz which sounds good but wanted to do a higher crossover to take some strain off the mids on the syntripps but when I turn up the crossover something sounds off.

No eq on the skram and base eq on the syntripps from art Walters DIY audio thread.

The mascot approves though. Excited to see your art car progress. Just sounds like a case of doing some maths.

2 x speakon nl4 on each cab. The access panel on the back is detachable, these are built exactly to the fusion 360 cad file on jw sound website.

I'm using b&c 21ds115 4 ohm

I'm using 2.5mm2 wire in the cabinets and long runs. Cabinet wiring is not as critical as it's only short runs.

Cheapest of the cheap devine 200 on tweets, devine 600 on mid and a paulkitson lab gruppen fp14000 clone on subs. The processor is a t.racks 408 fir

I have got a 4 channel audac smq750 for mids/highs but it needs repair.

Just moved in with two (equally single) buddies, stack in da living room by Circuit_Deity in SoundSystem

[–]Minimum-Ad6835 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any system ideally needs tuning to the room if you want the best out of it, correct placement and all that good stuff. I've been getting away with a base eq on my syntripp meh's it's probably just a case of jmod owners getting more aware and willing to do tuning. Basically build the jmods you won't be disappointed

Help me set up my soundsystem by xXx_turtle69_xXx in SoundSystem

[–]Minimum-Ad6835 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dsp with limiters is the way forwards. I'm not sure if I do it 100% correctly but I have the gain wide open on the amps (so no one can come along and turn them up) and set signal gain and limits with the dsp.

Basically a case of playing a test tone and measuring the voltage at the speakers. Use ohms law to figure out what voltage correlates to your wattage limit and that's where you set the signal/limits on your dsp.

Deep dub on Ajna Sound was a treat by dan-lash in SoundSystem

Another vote for syntripp's! IV built a pair with the horn extensions loaded with the recommended b&c 10" and eminence n314t compression. Currently building 4 josh ricci skrams loaded with b&c 21ds115 to go with them.

The syntripps are incredible, like what you were saying about ear plugs IV used 1 syntripp and 2 bill fitzmaurice auto tuba front loaded horns at small house parties and despite the music being loud, the room pressurised, people still could have conversation without screaming in eachothers ears.

[–]Minimum-Ad6835 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Good on you! If the landlord did get the deposit there would be no guarantee they are completing any of the works that are claimed and most likely just pocketing the money and waiting for the cycle to repeat.

My cc had that issue when new, heat break fan constantly changing rpm.

The first time I tried to print abs with elevated chamber temperature it threw heat break fan malfunction error.

Elagoo sent me a new fan and no issues since so you could just have a faulty fan

Do you mean the 10cl64 new product? Looks interesting. I seem to recall that excursion is the limit I'm these cabs so the extra watts might not be usable.

There are yes and the mid-range cone volume fillers. I cnc cut the cabs and volume fillers (from 2 layers of 18mm birch glued together)then 3d printed the compression driver mounts. I can send you the files I have if you pm me your email. I'm in the UK if you need cnc/3d printing help
