[QUOTE="Daniel Cumberland, post: 23071, member: 370"] Re: 12v Eco project sound system hi all i understand and am not surprised by your responses. we are confident of good build. we have access to CNC consonants out and recycle and find what ever we can. "Some important need to knows:" 1) How loud and at what distance? - interested to see what we can achieve. min distance is our enclosed canopy space with a diameter of 10meters. 2) How important is loud vs sound quality? - sound quality over loudness. sustainability and efficiency over fast drain of power. 3) With your budget, you're going to need to compromise somewhere. What are the most important wishes you have for this, and what are the least important factors? - a decent sound system we can use . elements in place we can build on and not just a means 2 an ends. and how to most effectively and efficiently turn all are volts to DB [which is how this all started] 4) Do you have plans to do anything with this after this research project ends? Does that affect your choices for the project? - The larger project 'Treadle' is a creative canopy under which various activity's workshops and social events take place. te sound system would become part of the current infrastructures assets [not to sell but for our own use] 5) Do you have any size/weight limitations? - not especially. liked the idea of big cabs as more efficient and to start with i thought would be the opposite. some thing 1m /1.5 is perfectly acceptable should it need to be the case. weight=as long as we can load it on and off the van/bus. no 6) What is considered a "victorious" outcome for your research project? Do you care more about the process and findings than the end result? - an efficient sound system running at 12v DC. yes! most definitely and is why i am here, in it for the long run. and i hope the end result of this stage will power us on to the next whilst at the same time being useable. -as for plans i was looking at the billfitzmaurice site and is how i ended up here waiting some balance to what ive been told there. and to see if any other designer were available. from what ive understood though out my conversations my mission is not impossible and i may achieve surprisingly good results in a home build and without huge investment from the off. [and im not in my basement/or back yard with a jigsaw and circular saw] we have the facilities to put this together. nor am i naive enough to think i can just put drivers in a box. ive seen it done. and in many found objects too. but the reason i am here is i want to do it right with the means i have available. sorry if i am "vague" / Unclear" i am just following a journey and exploring possibilities to see what is feasible. processes and motivations are important. and this has all come from conceptual ideas brought up in discussions. we do want to start piecing some things together now though as summer is fast approaching and we would like to trial are results. incidentally i am really enjoying the discussions on here and am grateful to all of you for your input and opinions. thx dan [/QUOTE]
