Subwoofer Owner’s Manual

ENCLOSURES

ENCLOSURE INFORMATION

Phoenix Gold subwoofers are overbuilt in virtually every way conceivable. It is important that the subwoofer’s enclosure is built to these same exacting standards. The enclosure must be constructed of at least .75 inch MDF. Screws or air staples are excellent construction fasteners when used with a strong bonding “yellow” wood working glue that can fill joint gaps. Be sure that the enclosure’s panels are airtight at all joining seams. Lining the walls with a polyester matting 1 to 3 inches thick is sufficient.

Your PG dealer has extensive knowledge, tools and the experience needed for the design and construction necessary for your subwoofer application. We also recommend you consult with your dealer for specific technical assistance related to your installation. The charts provided should be used as a reference when building an enclosure for your subwoofer. The charts contain several enclosure types. The Sound Quality enclosure provides deeper, tighter, and more musical output to truly reproduce the original source material. The SPL enclosure fits the “basshead’s” need for maximum output while sacrificing some sound quality.

The normal enclosure is a balance between SPL and SQ.

INFORMATIONS SUR L’ENCEINTE

Les caissons d’extrêmes graves sont fabriqués en fonction de normes rigoureuses afin de fournir des années de plaisir acoustique. Il est important que l’enceinte du caisson des extrêmes graves soit construite en fonction de ces mêmes normes rigoureuses. L’enceinte doit comprendre au moins un RP d’au moins 3/4” de pouces. Les vis ou agrafeuses pneumatiques constituent d’excellentes pièces de fixation lorsqu’elles sont utilisées avec une colle forte de couleur «jaune » pour le travail du bois qui peut combler les écarts de jointures. Assurez-vous que les panneaux de l’enceinte soient étanches au niveau de toutes les piqûres de liaison. Le revêtement des murs à l’aide d’une natte en polyester épaisse de 1 à 3 pouces suffit.

Votre concessionnaire PG dispose de grandes connaissances, d’outils et d’expérience requise pour la conception et la constructions de votre application de caisson d’extrêmes graves. Nous recommandons également de consulter votre concessionnaire afin d’obtenir une assistance technique spécifique se rapportant à votre installation. Les tableaux fournis devraient être utilisés comme référence au moment de construire une enceinte pour votre caisson aux extrêmes graves PG. Les tableaux présentent plusieurs types d’enceinte. L’enceinte de Qualité du son offre une sortie de musique qui est plus profonde, plus serrée et davantage de sortie sonore afin de reproduire véritablement le matériau source d’origine. L’enceinte SPL satisfait le besoin en «basshead» pour une sortie maximale tout en sacrifiant un peu de la qualité du son.

-For vented enclosures a subsonic filter set at 30Hz to 40Hz is highly recommended.

-Sealed enclosure volumes INCLUDE THE DISPLACEMENT of the subwoofer.

-Vented enclosure volumes INCLUDE THE DISPLACEMENT of the subwoofer. But DO NOT include displacement of the vent.

-In many cases, a 4 inch round vent/port can be used instead of a rectangle/slot vent. This can reduce the vent length and simply the enclosure construction. However, in some rare cases at high power a small amount of port noise maybe audible. The provided slot/rectangle ports will provide maximum performance and the most predictable results. Contact technical support for additional enclosure options.
