Somehow my es18bph cabinets make a rambling sound when I turn up the volume. I am trying to figure out what causes this rambling sound. I already put extra screws in some places in order to try to resolve my problem but I still haven't been able to resolve the issue.
Can anybody give me some advice on how to fix this? Would love to not have this rambling sound. I have 4 ES18BPH cabs loaded with PD186 powered by a Crown Macrotech 3600vz and a Xilixa xp4080 for processing.

So you're having identical issues with all 4 es18 and both hogs??
Obviously it's possible you're just a shoddy builder (and if your builds are shoddy you probably know it), but as you say you're experiencing the problem universally there may be some other fault in the chain, so make sure to examine each stage carefully, including drivers, amps, processing, progrsam material cables and test environment. Replace every stage one by one with a control if you can. How good are your cuts? Any air gaps in the joins? Any visibly uneven joins in critical places? |

I managed to fix this a while back. It turned out that the cause was that I only used 4 screws for the access panel F, one in each corner. Obviously this wasn't enough to hold the pressure my PD186's are creating... I added about 16 screws or so, rattling was gone. Big relief.
They sound sweet now! As for the hogs, I removed the top panel and glued all of the joints on the inside. Should have done that before, lesson learned. I also added screws at the joints on the inside. After putting back the top panel the rattling sound was fixed as well for the hogs. BIG relief. This were my first bandpass horn and scoop builds, before I only built 3 bass reflex boxes. These subs sound awesome! Especially the hogs, they are brutal :) Thanks for the advice!

Yes speakerboxes needs to be REALLY well glued & screwed.
All good builts are made with dadoes / routed out recessed joints ... |

Thinking of building 6-8 of these for psytrance outdoor parties. Looks much like turbosound tsw bandpass horns, so might just be good enough as a stand alone bass horns when stacked.
I really need very loud chest thumping bass for our parties - but not being too heavy system. Any other options? |
