2 silk dome tweeters, 5 3 inch mid drivers, 4 6 inch woofers with low extension, and 1 700 watt 10 inch ported high excursion sub

Her car even without the sub can hit down to 30hz and below. That stock sound system in that mustang is absolutely mental 😅

-# what is this terminology

fair onyx
#

if you have any questions, I would happily explain

#

I love sharing information 😅

unreal chasm
#

just played this on accident on my computer speakers scared the f outta me and might have woken some people up lmao

#

i too like to listen to alicia keys

fair onyx
#

mom and I are extreme bass heads 😅

unreal chasm
misty sparrow
#

I don’t know anything about audio but I do want some new audio equipment that works

fair onyx
#

lmao

misty sparrow
#

I even asked a question about it a few weeks ago here I think

velvet summit
#

Custom molded eartips would prevent that issue, but they cost as much as a pair of iems
Maybe even multiple pairs if you have cheaper iems

Im doing 2 8in subs facing in at eachother with a custom center console with an inverted 12 the magnet would be in the middle of the 2 8s

fair onyx
#

We like bass with balance. Not bloated, fat or muddy bass. That sounds terrible. I spent a lot of time making sure her car would sound extremely bassy without the other parts being overpowered

unreal chasm
#

It has a dual pane sliding back glass which makes my entire truck a sub box in itself

fair onyx
#

ok, thats dope haha

misty sparrow
fair onyx
#

Moms sub can go way louder, if I were to open a port from the trunk to the back seat. We could likely gain at least 3-6db, but her car is soooo well balanced

#

Those overrated Sonys or something

#

Or sennies

unreal chasm
#

I plan on having a switch for the inverted 12 on a seperate amp cause I would have it off for the most part

#

and the 2 8s are probably gonna be about 400w rms each

I used to have a 4 door dodge dakota which had a kenwood excelon single din, 4 apline type s door speakers I did only do coaxials besides the point, they were on a kenwood excelon 4 channel amp with 2 sundown SML-10s behind the backseat on a Rockford Fosgate 1200w RMS @1Ohm mono amp that dynoed 1446W RMS

# misty sparrow What’s: A driver? An excursion sub? What does 7.5 mean and what value is it? Wh...

A driver is the speaker. The cone that makes sound is the "driver"

A high excursion sub means the speaker has a lot of movement. You can have a big speaker that can't move much. The size of the speaker matters way less than the amount of air it can move. A high excursion sub in this case means it has a ton of forwards and backwards movement, and thus can move more air (which makes hitting lower notes easier)

7.5 means the array of speakers. You have your main speakers.sub speakers

That means we have 7 higher range speakers, and 5 sub woofers, which hit the lower notes. Usually you would have 5.1 for 5 speakers with 1 sub, like for home theater

Watts are how much power a speaker can draw/handle. If you have a speaker that is the same size, but can handle more power, you can get more sound/pressure from them. In this case, going from a 350 watt sub to a 700 watt sub means that we are getting considerably more sound pressure (bass) out of the speaker, even though its the same size

Hertz relates to the frequency response of the speaker. The lower the note the speaker can hit, the more bass reflex you have. For example, a normal car system can usually go down to about 60hz, but it will have no presence below that. My moms sound system without a dedicated sub woofer can already hit down to low 30hz, meaning it has plenty of lower range bass even without a sub

#

@misty sparrowIf you have any more questions, I would gladly explain. I think audio is super dope

velvet summit
unreal chasm
#

Let me also say I probably wont do the inverted 12 at all as I like my center console

#

so just 2 inward facing high excursion 8s

#

2 component speakers sets on an amp with a new head unit

#

Ive never messed with the stand alone equalizers

fair onyx
#

@misty sparrowYou can see excursion here. This first speaker doesn't move too far, while the second one can move extremely far. That means it can generate more sound in the same space

unreal chasm
#

I mostly understand how the EQs work however when I tinker with them I make things worse so I tend to leave it flat

fair onyx
#

brun neither of those embedded

velvet summit
misty sparrow
#

I’d imagine something like this would possibly destroy the world then

fair onyx
velvet summit
unreal chasm
#

Well theyre not gonna be inverted by inward I mean they are gonna face eachother

fair onyx
unreal chasm
#

so in phase

fair onyx
#

ok, so they have the same positive and negative configuration?

#

You're going for a positive cone to cone pressure instead of a push pull config?

misty sparrow
#

-# Cone?

fair onyx
#

driver

velvet summit
fair onyx
#

this part is the cone

velvet summit
#

As a marketing tactic

unreal chasm
#

sum like that

misty sparrow
fair onyx
unreal chasm
#

yes yes

fair onyx
velvet summit
fair onyx
#

I thought you were doing that thing. I always forget the name

misty sparrow
#

what thing

unreal chasm
#

bridging them?

fair onyx
fair onyx
#

its when you stack two subs touching for higher air suspension. It increases reflex

#

I always forget the damn name. Its super niche

unreal chasm
#

ohh

#

you mean like

#

one in phase one 180 phase

fair onyx
#

I am trying to find a pic

unreal chasm
#

so one inverted with one set in the box

fair onyx
# unreal chasm one in phase one 180 phase

you can do them in phase, or out of phase. In phase means they will create a spring action on each other that increases their air pressure. Out of phase means they have less resistance and more excursion

velvet summit
#

Many older speakers have foam speaker rings (aka compliances) which have hardened and may be cracking, so if you have some old speakers that sound like crap or keep overloading your amp, you may want to look at it, and if it is broken or crispy, you may want to replace it

unreal chasm
#

I figured you wouldnt want them in the same phase no?

fair onyx
#

damn it, why can't I find a picture 😭

velvet summit
#

Either with a new foam ring or change to silicone or rubber or whatever

fair onyx
#

here, this is how it works

velvet summit
#

I did that with my old ass speakers since the foam like, disappeared lmfao

fair onyx
#

with them in phase, they cancle out each others motion, which makes it harder for them to move. That means you can put more power through them without them bottoming out, and they will reflex and reset faster and tighter

Out of phase means they can both move more with less power. You can use less power across two subs and get more "boom", but way less tightness

unreal chasm
fair onyx
#

YES

#

did you see what its called?

#

I can never remember the damn name

#

there are ones where they touch

#

Dual opposing sub!

#

I found it!

unreal chasm
#

doesnt say

fair onyx
#

You can do them like this

unreal chasm
#

oh okay

#

ohh?

#

never seen that

fair onyx
#

so, if you have them in phase. Let me draw it

unreal chasm
#

so..

#

I can

fair onyx
unreal chasm
#

put 2 subs together???

fair onyx
#

yes

#

you can use them to either be tighter, or make more noise

#

see! Here!

unreal chasm
#

what da fug ive never seen no shyt like this

fair onyx
#

if they both move in the same way, that decreases the spring on the boxed one, which allows it to move more with less power. This can make them way more Boomy

unreal chasm
#

Im too zooted for all this revolutionary info bro

fair onyx
#

but if you do it this way, they increase each others pressure, which adds more spring and makes them reset faster. This makes them way more punchy

unreal chasm
#

I already have 18 tabs open on google I dont need more😂

fair onyx
#

so when they push into each other, they have higher pressure stopping them from moving, which makes them reset faster. So if you want really tight and punchy bass, make them fight each other. If you want louder and boomier bass, make them move in the same direction

#

I hope what I am saying makes sense

unreal chasm
#

it does but my brain doesnt retain the info lol

fair onyx
#

you can even do a quad system

#

behold

#

this is a push pull push push. I have no idea how this even works, and I will not pretend to know lmao

unreal chasm
#

theres no way somones actually done some shi like this

velvet summit
#

No way?

unreal chasm
#

I meaaan

#

I know someones probably done it but like wtf

#

it just looks wrong

velvet summit
#

There's always somebody bored enough to try random stuff

unreal chasm
fair onyx
#

I just looked at it

#

thats exactly what it is

#

more boom AND more reflex

#

thats legit exactly what it is

unreal chasm
#

the sub box?

#

your saying "you just looked at it" and "thats what it is" im not following

fair onyx
#

the left side is push push for more reflex, the right side is push pull for more boom

unreal chasm
#

yea

#

guess im finna drop a bag on 4 subs😭 my dumbahh doin research n shi

fair onyx
#

these achieve the same thing, as long as you invert the signal on the backwards one

#

look at this one, this is easier to understand

#

if they both pull in, the pressure inside the box will increase 2x as much and push them back out faster. That makes faster and stronger reflex

If one pulls in and the other out, it will keep the pressure inside the box the same, which makes it easier for them to move, thus more BOOM

#

First makes much tighter and snappier bass, second makes much bigger and boomier bass

#

red is the pressure zone

#

cone to cone will make the most reflex pressure, cause its a smaller area. If you extend a smaller area more, the pressure increases faster

misty sparrow
#

Not much departure from water

fair onyx
fair onyx
#

right, I forgot. Isobaric (working together) gives them better low end extension as well

unreal chasm
#

Also now that I think of it the magnets will get in the way of my middle seat folding up so they cant have inverted subs

fair onyx
#

it can be delicate to get right

#

@unreal chasmI found the simplest explaination. If you have them working together, you can get the same volume and frequency tuning as if you doubled the volume of the enclosure

unreal chasm
#

ah okayy

fair onyx
#

@unreal chasmOk, so, some of what I said was apprently wrong. I am looking at a high level overview. Working together does not make them louder. It actually makes them quieter, but it greatly smooths the frequency response

#

as seen here

#

but yes, this confirms that you need half the amount of space for the same resonance/response when doing two mounted together

#

for sure have a watch if you wanna better understand!

What is isobaric loading, and what happens when you mount woofers in series vs. parallel? Give me 7 minutes to explain.

#

Honestly at this point i wouldnt be surprised if AMD said they werent competing with nvidias high end just to convince them to stuff up the prices abhorrently

#

Would be some pretty smart marketing tbh

#

"Hey look at this greedy cesspool!! Buy our stuff instead!!"

nocturne flicker
#

Nah, Nvidia was going to greed out no matter what they did, I imagine AMD was just hoping they could leech away at the lower and mid tier markets when Nvidia inevitably raised prices across the board. Except there is a bigger competition in that market than they probably expected with Intel

#

It isn't like they were really competing much at the high end to begin with, their market share is just small to begin with and that shrinks further up their stack

mortal grail
#

Imagine that price is real

#

Then every new game is made to run on a 2.5K 5090

#

Hahahahaha

#

It's so realistic it's scary

#

Ahahahaha

hoary zodiac
#

And 2 years later a 1k radeon outperforms it

#

Or a $600 radeon

mortal grail
#

My 4090 might be worth more after next gen drops at this rate

hoary zodiac
#

It will be probs

#

Scalpers

#

And people are gonna look for used 4090s

mortal grail
#

I'm expecting a 2K paper launch

#

2.5K market price after 3 months

#

If the 5080 is 1400 then 2K scales almost perfectly to that

#

Meaning my estimations were actually generous

#

Which is hilarious

#

But then devs try to make games on a gpu no one wants to buy

hoary zodiac
#

2.5K + the $200 psu you need

mortal grail
#

Nah it's a 600W tdp

hoary zodiac
#

And airflow

#

WTF

#

That's more than a 295x2

mortal grail
#

Why are you surprised

#

The 4090 runs up to 600

hoary zodiac
#

We live in a post 500w world

#

600W that's just in TDP right?

mortal grail
#

The 4090 spikes up to 750 on a normal bios lad

hoary zodiac
#

Not peak?

#

Can you run it even on a 1Kw psu?

mortal grail
#

People give 4090 so much credit, 40 series in general is good with power management

#

Yes

#

I do

hoary zodiac
#

The 5090

mortal grail
#

Yes

hoary zodiac
#

that's a relief

mortal grail
#

Just don't stick a 14900K with it

hoary zodiac
#

I wonder

#

What if someone's building a monster workstation with it

#

With several 5090s

#

What kind of power setup would they need

mortal grail
#

But like the XTX is a stone's throw away in raster, worse efficiency but much cheaper, spikes to 550 stock

Hey

Big question

#

Does it have a.i

hoary zodiac
#

Nvidia sandwich press

#

This one also doubles as a grill so I can cook with it

mortal grail
#

Thermi moment

hoary zodiac
#

I wonder

#

If you can cook on a 4090

mortal grail
#

You can

#

Iirc someone cooked eggs on a 3090

hoary zodiac
#

I want a stupid heatsink

sage sluice
#

Or whatever in aussie dollas

hoary zodiac
#

That transfers the heat to a cooking surface

#

So you get a grill and a pc

mortal grail

The 3090 backplate was hot af

hoary zodiac

Wait

#

THE BACKPLATE?

mortal grail
#

I genuinely thinking someone cooked eggs on it lol

hoary zodiac

Oh wait how do those coolers work again?

#

Don't they have fans on both sides?

#

Or just the reference models

mortal grail

Oh there's tons of vids LOL

Wild, just found out that the GPU power monitor in afterburner can cause bad 1% lows in games on random hardware configs

sage sluice
mortal grail

Yes

#

And I can wait I got gpus

gilded kraken
mortal grail
#

Interesting

gilded kraken
#

yea. I dont use it in my OSD so I just toggled it off

mortal grail
#

Oh specifically osd?

gilded kraken
#

nah the graph monitoring in general

mortal grail
#

Hm

gilded kraken
#

just flip the check on gpu power off and its fine

mortal grail
#

I might look into that

#

Fascinating

#

I had some hitching on a couple games a while back I could never figure out

#

But I had afterburner running

#

Maybe that's related

#

I might check that out, good to know

gilded kraken

no idea. fascinating video to find it out though

Have you ever experienced microstuttering so bad that you thought your hardware was defective? That’s exactly what happened to me with my 9800X3D—it felt like every game was unplayable, and I was losing my mind trying to fix it. Was I perhaps experiencing the infamous AMDIP that many enthusiasts and PC gamers have complained about with AMD chips...

▶ Play video
mortal grail
#

Ohhhh i2c monitoring

#

Yeah that's a real thing

#

Yeah I'd believe it if afterburner draws from that

#

Important to know btw

#

This is why you try and prioritise games to lone cores and background stuff to others

#

It helps with that sort of thing

#

But I didn't know afterburner did that, only hwinfo

#

So interesting info

gilded kraken
#

interesting. Ive never tried it personally. I use HWinfo atm because Afterburner doesnt display my CPU temp

#

it needs to be updated to recognize the new 9800x3d

#

or a hybrid of the two actually

mortal grail
#

Yeah hwinfo gives you the option to disable it

#

But I don't use afterburner on radeon so it should be mainly an nvidia thing

gilded kraken
#

interesting. is the option to disable it on the sensors only or do I gotta launch the full program

hoary zodiac
#

can't you customise afterburner?

#

or is cpu temps not in the options

gilded kraken
#

yea. Ive tried but theres litterally not a option for CPU package temp right now

hoary zodiac
#

damn

gilded kraken
#

for the new chip

hoary zodiac

Ok this is the only time I'm going to watch a j2c video

You should mod it with accelerated poop

Do like

well now i shall shop for games

mortal grail

Every time you poop the poop cycle gets 25% faster

gilded kraken

oh no weave been beaned

#

the bean weave is too strong

mortal grail

So you have to reach civilised technology before the poop speed becomes so fast the game crashes

can someone tell me what the hell gear ratios in ram are

#

been searching online but im still very confused

craggy shoal
#

I don't think that's a thing

#

what

#

Unless you mean like a Ram 1500

#

like one of these Rams

mortal grail
#

So gear 1 is complete 1:1 sync

#

Gear 2 is 1:2

#

Gear 4 is 1:4

craggy shoal
#

bro is describing a DCT

#

1 3 5 and 2 4 6

mortal grail
craggy shoal
#

I just read 2 and 4 lol. Made me think of DCTs

mortal grail
#

But the way intel runs gears is a similar idea

craggy shoal
#

Felix I genuinely can't tell whether you're being serious. I don't think there's gears in computers lol

mortal grail
#

Well gearboxes run in ratios to a final drive, it's a similar concept just physical not digital

paper verge

then

mortal grail

I actually am

paper verge

yep

craggy shoal
#

man I just woke up

paper verge
#

wait who is motor talking to rn

craggy shoal
#

bofa y'all

mortal grail
#

1:2:2 refers to the rate of sync for fclk, uclk, mclk

#

So 2 are in half sync to the 1

paper verge
#

hows that even possible

mortal grail
#

i.e every 2nd cycle

paper verge
#

when the max fclk is 2200 or smth

craggy shoal
#

so not gear ratios just clock ratios

mortal grail
#

It can because they manage to allow that bisynchronous operation

paper verge
#

i heard its called gear ratios

#

idk

mortal grail
#

For amd it's not really anymore

#

It's synced and desynced

#

Amd basically permanently desynced their fclk with new gen

craggy shoal
mortal grail
#

And mclk and uclk are the only 2 synced

#

Or half synced

#

i.e gear 1 and 2 but they don't call it that

mortal grail
craggy shoal
#

gotcha

mortal grail
#

Harmonics and gear ratios have a lot in common

paper verge

If I need to be more specific from here I'd need a whiteboard lmao

He's good at numbers

He doesn't really know the principles

paper verge

ah

mortal grail

He's admitted to this before

And yeah knowing the way it works isn't anything much ado with the way you overclock

paper verge
paper verge
craggy shoal
#

True but I think for a CS degree they should still teach them how computers work lol

mortal grail
#

Alr

paper verge
#

they should just give all cs majors a stm with 1kb of flash and teach them programming on that

#

lmfao

craggy shoal
#

I'm not the most efficient programmer but I'd know for sure I could be efficient if I was good at programming but also knew hardware as good as I currently know

mortal grail
#

If I can give a good suggestion, be prepared for tons of harmonics calculations and understanding that kind of mechanical motion

#

Electrical studies and AC learning will help you get a bit deeper

mortal grail
#

Since it's all about signal frequency

paper verge
craggy shoal
#

That's also why C++ exists 💀

#

Just teach heavy in C++ and you'll have a quick program and 2-4 years worth of a single language drilled into a recent graduate's head

not really

craggy shoal

(yeah I kinda meant that as a joke anyways)

if you go beyond loops in c++ you start to get into fundamentals
