Hi everybody I started this thread in order to help the more beginner members of our forum build X1's loaded with diferent drivers than the original one first: enclosure data X1 is a 6th order bandpass Chamber 1 - 189 Liters tunned to 42.2 Hz Chamber 2 - 62 Liters tunned to 84.7 Hz seems that ROG has done a veery good job with this bandpass, as it models verry good with a lot of drivers. ------------- general manager & head designer at nexus-acoustics research http://www.facebook.com/nexus.acoustics.research" rel="nofollow - http://www.facebook.com/nexus.acoustics.research Ex Nexus_3 |

Drivers tested, and found not to be usable in this design, even with alterations to the ports are: P-audio C18-600LF P-audio P-18N is looks like there are some really cheap driver that can perform in this enclosure remember, DO NOT OVERDRIVE these speakers, especially the cheaper ones because the X1 is a very brutal bandpass with uneven loading of the cone and severe unloading outside the operating range. if you need other cones simulated in this designs , just ask hope this helps  ------------- general manager & head designer at nexus-acoustics research http://www.facebook.com/nexus.acoustics.research" rel="nofollow - http://www.facebook.com/nexus.acoustics.research Ex Nexus_3 |

Nice thread my man.
Looks like your using Bass Box Pro for the sims. I didn't use that when I designed it. I'm not sure its accurate at 6th order BP. Cabs build from Bass Box Pro don't measure anything like the sims say they should.
The data used for the X1 is this, your'e close but I'm going to give you a detention for getting it wrong ha ha.
Rear Chamber (Vb1) 180 Litres
Front Chamber (Vb2) 64 Litres
Rear tuning (Fb1) 38.5Hz
Front tuning (Fb2) 73.5Hz
Bandwidth -3dB 56.7Hz

Hi Mircea,
it indeed does.
Personally Id like 2 see simus of the following drivers:
PD.186, PDN.18SB40 and PD.18BR40 BMS 18n850 (will withstand 2.5 kw of power, people say)Beyma 18G480 and 118ndw
18sound 18ND9300
B&C 18TBX100 and 18PZB100
Ciare 18.009
Selenium 18SWS1100 and 18WS600
Dayton PF460
, mainly the lightweight neodyms, and of course with cabinet parameters Rog already released.
Thanx in advance. ------------- Mike Severloh. |

The problem is Mike that unless Mircea uses the program I used to design the X1 if he uses my tunings and chamber sizes he will not get an accurate sim.
I used two programs to do the X1. I used an Akabak script I wrote that takes many things into account, like that both ports are on the floor so the end correction gives a new lower port tuning. I also used a really old and modified version of LEAP that always seems spot on with real measurements.
Mircea's plots show the F3L point in the mid 40's, my sims all give an F3L in the mid to low 30's, which is consistant with Vb1. Theres also a plot on this site somewhere of an X1 vs a Lab horn, and the plot dosen't look anything like Mircea's sims. Just found the plot.
 The plots were not taken in ideal condidtions as they were made at a bass shootout. So the location and room placement is reinforcing the low end quite a bit.
Rog.

I heard the V18-1000 is the baddest guy on the block in this cab. Does that mean drivers with similiar specs (Especially BL/Vas/Xmax/Fs/Coil material) will perform similarily?

the x1 is a really brutal box!
i had no choice but to load one with an eminence sigma pro (600w) due to short notice
its possibly the worst 18" driver i have come across! the cone is made with something that resembles tracing paper.
anyway, we put 800w into it (we also put 800w into the celestion ftr 600w driver and it has been fine!) and it only last about 10-15 hours of use before making very weird farting/rattling noises. we thought it may have been the actual cab as it was newly built, but upon closer inspection, we found that the driver was f**ked!
it now has a huge tear all around the cone.
there was no apparent distortion and our amps/mixer/lms never clip.
... hopefully the 186 we picked up will cope with 800w (will it btw?)

I have four Void V-18 loaded X1's,driven with two bridged JBL MPX1200 3.2k each at four ohm's. Which ive used for a couple of dubstep nights recently,let me tell those who dont know, the power of the X1's is phenomenal and has to be heard to be beleived.They really do move serious amounts of air and in a 150 capacity club do real damage!I stick a block of two side by side with the other two on top in between 2 Martin 115's ,Phili's and 2" JBL's a side.Both times we've had complaints from the council(not good)for noise poll.The 6'x8' reinforced glass windows flex like you wouldn't believe,the streetlights outside the venue rattle ,and when i bumped into the Chef of the kitchen upstairs the next day, said all his chest freezers were moving around!!Thats another thing ,they like to mingle,spent a lot of the night pushing them back to there original positions after they had migrated onto the danefloor!I love 'em.Cheers Rog.  ------------- NEIGHBOURHOOD SOUNDSYSTEM Infinitely baffled. |

Well I dont want to give away a good secret,but they are(in my opinion which is of no consuecence at all ,blah, blah, blah) for the money probably one of the best bargains out there,yes there made by QSC and are quite highly regarded by the profesionals (so im told)I paid £1400 for four spotless MPX 1200's with amp racks worth £200.So £300 each for 3.2K of very clean bass bin battering power.Loads of features, 30hz switchable low pass(Handy for scoops etc...)Stable down to 2 ohms... THX approved...to name a few.They were made to run the big 2x18 4685-8 TCB cabs that JBL used to make in the 90's(so im told again!Of which I have an original pair for sale if anyones interested,to f@#?ing big for me,like two X1's together and then a bit more on top!look awesome but dont deliver as well as my Void V-18 loaded X1's) Anyway I'm very pleased with there peformance.Probably very expensive when new!I was gutted to miss one on ebay that went for just over a ton very recently,apparently stuck in bridge(not a prob)but they didn't even mention the switch on the back!(maybe they didn't know about it).

I´m quite sure you know already, but I got to admit the BMS 18n850 does a pretty good job in an X1. Seems to have moderate efficiency, which lies in between the PD.186 and the big SAMMI 18" ( which sounds good but is not as loud as the others ). All in all my X1 now is very lightweight, so I can handle this modular 4way stack alone again (the rest being smaller horns). ------------- Mike Severloh. |

I want to build one with a 15" speaker... /QUOTE]Hi, I built one using an enclosure I already had. Outline was like a Community VB790: tunnels were straight, both 38cm long chambers were damped, being 48 l , 400 cm² tunnel 140 l, 260 cm² tunnel Chassis: I used a cheapo, the Raveland AXX1515, which would hold 440 W "linear" till Xmax in there. Sounds - deep. Better choices: Ciare 15.00SW, 600 W, or even BMS 15n840-4, 900 W, giving 124 dB/32 Hz, calculated linear, cold voice coil. The cab is used as a drumfill infra, doing a great job between 31 and 85 Hz. Extreme hipass filter necessary for full power, of course. ------------- Mike Severloh. |

Hey, Ja Daniel, wir kennen uns. Wollte nur mal fragen, ob der Threadersteller den G400 und den S801 mit seinem Programm testen könnte. Aber ehrlich: Ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass dein Void saubere spielt. Der RCF wird doch gerade dafür so gelobt, dass er für nen 18" extrem sauber spielt. Grüße aus Karlsruhe |

Ich hab gedacht du meinst das die pappe sich unter controlle hat sprich verhalten auserhalb X-max oder ähnliches the hat der void vorteile wegen doppelzentrierung und größerem Antrieb. Sauberer spielt sicher der S801. Der G400 und der s801 werden nicht so controlliert spielen wie der void the fast gleiches pappengewicht (beim G400) bei weniger antrieb und einfacher zentrierung ob man das in nem Bandpass hört ist die andere Frage .Ps: Ich komme doch aufs Forentreffen hab cheffe überreden können. |

It' priced about $170. What could you say about this? Maybe, it could be given somewhat 700-1000 W, not exceeding nominal. Maybe, apply some strengthening compound on it (how much will the clarity and quality of sound be worsen/affected) ? Thanks everybody! greetings from Belarus |

BTW anyone that wants simulations for their drivers must post the question in the folowing way name of the speaker, and T/S parameters in the folowing order. Fs Qms Vas Xmax Sd Qes Re Le Z Pe (power RMS/AES) This will help me cut a lot of the time involved in looking for specks for every driver. ------------- general manager & head designer at nexus-acoustics research http://www.facebook.com/nexus.acoustics.research" rel="nofollow - http://www.facebook.com/nexus.acoustics.research Ex Nexus_3 |

Stumbled upon this woofer from caire, the 18.00 SW
It has some interresting specs:
THIELE-SMALL PARAMETERS
Qms 11,16 Qes 0,47 Qts 0,45 Fs 36,40 Hz Re 6,80 Ohm Mms 371 g Cms 0,05 m/N Bl 35,11 Wb/m Sd 0,1104 m² Vas 0,08811 m³ u0 0,88 % XMax 14 mm Le 1,72 mH As you can see a very high BL!
Í'm not very good in simulating drivers, but I wonder what this would do in a X1?

Interesting plot of that void driver, not very smooth responce, and no significant SPL gain compaired to other simmed drivers, or can this driver handle more watt's input before reaching it's xmax?
Alot of people on here realy like the void in the X1, but why?
What make's this driver so special, compaired to ''modern'' neo drivers?

the programs used for simulations only predict the response based on
some simple electromechanical constants suplied by the manufacturers. In real life most drivers react diferently at different frequencies and loadings. BL varies significantly for example the void with it's massive magnetic motor might be better designed am could mantain better control at higher excursions than a normal NEO WOOFER that sims better. ------------- general manager & head designer at nexus-acoustics research http://www.facebook.com/nexus.acoustics.research" rel="nofollow - http://www.facebook.com/nexus.acoustics.research Ex Nexus_3 |

Maybe read over, but have we a simulation of the pd.1851 yet!? Shure ya all know, but here the tsp again:
Got two x1 letterbox here (almost ready) and don't shure wich drivers to use (1850, 1851, v18-1200). If someone can do a frequency-plot with all three it would be great! |

put the other driver's Ts over here like for the 1851 and I'll make a comparative graph

Hi i would also like to see the PD.186 modeled in the X1 (specs below), would it be possible to plot against the Fane Colossus 18XB (specs posted above) and state if safe to run at 900W without dangerous cone excursion. Fs 27hz Qms 7.75 Vas 353l Xmax 10.5mm Sd 1150 cm2 Qes 9.326 Re 5.5 Ohms Le Z 8 Ohms Pe 700 Also would there be any difference in response between the PD.186 8ohm and 4ohm version? I ask because i could run a pair off one amp at 4ohm but would need another amp if i use the 8ohm version. I had been looking at the Fane Colossus 18B-600 as it is a reasonable price and seems to have a stiffer cone than the XB, less likely to rip apart in the X1 as a few people seem to think this cab is rough on drivers. Especially drivers with paper cones, does anyone think the PD/186 and the Colossus XB are unsuitable in the X1? Thanks, James |
