How do I make myself deaf ?

How do I make myself deaf ? Sub and speaker phase issues
How do I play all of these at the same time ? (Don't ask me why

)

Sealed System with its own 2 channel amp - Sealed 3 way with 12 inch woofers + sealed 15 inch subwoofer - sub Phase is 0

Ported System with its own 2 channel amp -Ported 3 way with 12 inch woofers + ported 12 inch subwoofer - sub Phase is 180

Both systems is run full range with no filters. both sub is powered by its own plate amplifier

When I use the sealed system and add the ported subwoofer, bass is reduced, I need to set the ported sub's phase to 0

If i set the ported sub's phase to 0 to integrate with the sealed system, what will it effects be when I use the ported 3 ways, will it cancel some of the bass of the ported 3 ways?

Seeing as you already have all the necessary gear why not give all of your options a listen and tell us what you think.

When running the ported system- try blocking the port in the ported 3-way speakers (put something heavy like a rolled up towel in the port), and then see if they work with the ported sub set to 0 degrees. That might reduce the phase shift of the ported 3-ways enough for that to work better.

If you can do that, then you're in business...

Gordon.

Thanks will try that approach.

edit: Will I loose significant SPL ?

I can't hear it, am I deaf?

The first example would undoubtedly accomplish the task whereas the second would only induce the friend to favor choosing the first.
