Impedance matching. These drivers are so small, the more you can port load the driver, the more it can achieve. 6th orders, T-lines are very capable, I'd like to see what a horn in this form factor could achieve, though I imagine it'd be a nightmare to fit into the build plane of a 3D printer. Folds galore.

In addition to great audio and 3D printing content, the videography, editing and audio quality of this video is fantastic. The transitions from video to rendering/animation, beautiful. I couldn't help but to comment, your production quality exceeds that of most channels with 10x more subscribers. Thank you for the craftsmanship, greatly appreciated.

This is by far one of the best KZread channels I have ever experienced, and I've been using this platform for over a decade now. You're incredibly honest, precise, transparent, and efficient! It's so rare to hear someone speak so humbly on here, this channel is a much needed refreshment 🏝 thank you for all that you do, I appreciate you! cheers 🎆🎇

I bought Sennheiser HD660s all because of his review and they fucking RULE!

Wow, I love how much bass both setups play, and especially how clean the sound is! But I love more bass so second I loved the second setup more.

This seems to be the best solution that I can stick one underneath the front passenger seat. Thanks for your amazing content! Cheers

3d printing: definitely check out "make anything", cnc kitchen audio: i only know you hexibase :)

I've just came across your channel browsing through car audio videos. You, sir, are an amazing presenter, very pleasant to listen to. Keep it up!

Brother this videos blow my mind every time. I have learned few tricks here and there and I enjoy making my own boxes and stuff but the patience and science you display along with the precision and care are Fantastic. Thanks for sharing this awesome knowledge with the world.

Dude. I totally admire you. Been watching your vids for a small while now... (think I stumbled upon you via some other bass channel). You positively have a music theory degree, as well as a degree in electronics engineering. I'm a prior Navy radar tech, so that helps with understanding the theories you are presenting. I'm also a bass enthusiast, as well as a moonlighting EDM producer, car nut, general nerd. Mad props to you man. Keep 'em coming.

Watched a few of your videos today, im very impressed, love the detailed information you give.

Your scientific approach, integration of new ideas and technology, and willingness to try something just for proof of concept are all awesome. I enjoyed your audio vids before you integrated 3d printing... both of which are hobbies of mine as well. Keep em coming. I suppose I've got to build Hexibase V3 for my kids car now...

Yes! I have been waiting for the next video, so excited to watch it!

brought back some "what's in my trunk" vibes

These videos are really unique and interesting because they 1) demonstrate how 3d printing can be an enabling tool in the advancement of other hobbies and knowledge domains and 2) because Hexibase is capable and intelligent, but not a dedicated 3d printing expert. This gives a really interesting look into what is practically achievable for a hobbyist that wants to use a printer as a tool, and does not want to invest a ton of time into becoming a 3d printing specialist. For years now, almost every commercial printer has been capable of producing excellent parts in the hands of an expert or specialist, so the evaluation criteria needs to shift to what it is capable of producing in the hands of a competent generalist.

Loving these type of videos on KZread. Properly engineered and tested products. Subscribed.

I can’t wait to see what you print next! Big fan!!

So I went ahead and got me a printer after watching your v.2 build. It was my first print ever so there was a lot of trial and error. I got it done and opted for an internal bluetooth circuit amp and power supply input as the only externally visible connection (Pics on thingiverse). This is doable, thanks to you Sir! Just finished v.3 for my desktop setup the other day. Got a Dayton Audio DTA-2.1BT2 100W 2.1 for a dedicated sub channel and 2 satellites laying around AND THE SOUND IS AWESOME!!!! The dual subs don't even break a sweat, so I'm working on a remix now to take advantage of my 310x310 build volume. Will post on HexiBase Thingiverse remix page once complete with specs.

Nice job man. Crazy result!

Your videos ar on another level! Thanks for all the content please keep on :)

Amazing performance! Perfect example of proper enclosure design.

Awesome work and great video!

I love these videos. So interesting and satisfying to watch.

lower end sounds great on the v3, wicked test tracks too!

this is simply amazing. you are amazing! astonishing work.

These are freaking awesome. I would love to have one scaled and configured for a 8”.

Wow, what great production quality. Awesome video.

You designs are incredibly impressive. Your little 3" sub builds get my 15" sub in my living room moving. None of my book shelf speakers nor headphones can reproduce the bass properly. For anyone who is watching, if you don't have a system capable of producing some seriously low frequency bass, you are totally missing out.

I love Tang Band. Listening to this video on my desktop with a Voxel mini-sub, and I've built Paul Carmody's Isetta as well.

I had one of these woofers, but no 3d printer. I wanted to give this design a try, so used just one woofer and built it off 1/2 inch MDF. Of course I wasn’t able to make the curves like hexibase. But the design delivers. It fills my 2 car garage with ample bass. 👍 to hexibase.

What an amazing channel you have put together here, your skills [if done alone] are great in the video/audio/electronics department. New sub.

What up Junglist! Love your projects and channel. Keep up the good work.

You've got a new subscriber. Love your content and I'm so glad I found your channel.

I absolutely love your enthusiasm and depth of knowledge and I'm always left feeling like I cant wait for your next video 😉🤦‍♂️👌keep up the fantastic work and God bless you 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏

U are so super cool! im a huge fan since i saw you yesterday haha :D I already ordered one of the sound units and preparing to 3D print V2 very soon!

Could you also make a video on your education regarding audio? Perhaps what got you started, how and or where you studied, and where someone that’s interested may start? Great work as always! Thanks for the incredible videos.

Awesome video and content in general! 👍 It was recommended because I recently got the Lotmaxx SC-10 and have been watching other people's videos on it. I believe Dirk is correct about the heat bed wiring being the issue with this printer. I've just ordered some replacement wires to help mitigate any possibility of failure in my printer soon. But so far it's been printing flawlessly! I've subscribed and am looking forward to watching more of your videos. Great work and take care! ✌️

I remember watching your videos like 10 years ago. You used to build spl stuff then seems like gradually shifted to sq. Cool stuff, I really get into the details you explain, specially when designing a ported box. Always seem so thorough and so knowledgeable in this stuff just wondered if you do it as a profession or if it’s just a hobby.

Found some additional channels to recomend. Audio - Acoustic Fields 3d printing - CNC Kitchen - Ivan Miranda

1st class production and editing.

Ivan Miranda, it's 3D printing he does some big prints even as far as making his own large printer!

Amazing how good and powerfull this smal sub sounds! Impressive!

cool project. was looking for something exactly like this. Going to repeat this project

very impressed I like your videos a lot . I love to learn from people like you ! thumbs up

"The HEADPHONE Show" is a great YT ch for audio nerds.

Brilliant work bro... I want that double bass v.3

An 8 inch box with the same technology and thought would be the ultimate compact sub. Truly amazing my friend 👌🏾👌🏾

outstanding work

I know that you said that this isn't a replacement for a proper subwoofer... But man, it really delivers. For small cars you really don't need anything else just to get that juicy bass boost.

My super beetle needs a v.3! :O So tiny, so much base!

Awesome build! I had to chop each half into 4 equally sized pieces as there was absolutely no way on earth my printer was going to print a part with that much bed surface area

Damn bro.... Your work is incredible. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I am going to build this along with his bookshelves he designed for a desktop 2.1 setup! Super excited! I bought a bigger 3D printer just to build these.

If you all can imagine how well these two little 3in drivers perform with Pete at the helm of the design wheel then take a moment and try to imagine the series tuned 6th order box that he designed for my Sundown Audio X15d2 and how incredibly violent yet clean it is lol it will blow your hair right back flexing my windshield and yet all the while it sounds absolutely concert clean doing so! AD designs for the win 🔊🔊🔊🏆

Hexibase, how tight the wall of that plastic box are? In the past we worked with 3d printed stuff at work and water was capable diffusing thru the plastic walls. Did you used sealant paint inside? If there is air diffusion thru the wall the Q factor of your box will drop a little bit and you might loose efficiency right? Just like the old aperiodic vent with diffuser to extend LF if i remember correctly and make it les boomy ?

great video as always. love the intro song too

Wow... That's really impressive

my mind was blown when you plugged in the first sub, then my mind was even more blown when you connected the second one :O do you know how much grams of filament this used? If i wanted to pay some company to print this for me?

I am always amused by the writing, editing and producing qualities of your videos, not even mentioning the outstanding mic tech and sound quality! I listened the test and I was, yeah, ok, then "one of the jerks again pumping music god damn" , then I noticed it is coming from my speakrs omfg :D it is sooo deep, I can finally annoy my neighboors too with a car XD

I really enjoy your channel. Been a subscriber for a while but really didn't get hooked until you combined 3D printing with enclosure design. I would love if you could get into the theory and practical design side of things. I've gone through almost every single WinISD youtube tutorial online but I don't think WinISD can support complicated enclosures like the ones you make (T-Line, etc). I'm looking at using a Tang Band W5-2053 and it's other slightly beefier cousin in a small car foot well enclosure. Whatever ported box I design seems to have a steep drop off after 40hz. I'm just a total newbie hobbyist and hope you can do a video on box design! Love the channel, thank you!

how did you go about calculating the box size / port size? I've only read a little about the DBR enclosure design - and most suggest having the larger chamber first. I'd love to know your thinking behind this as I'd like to design my own variant of your sweet little subwoofer

Starting to hear distortion in my right AirPod lol keep doing these I’ll watch them all

I am really looking forward to see "something bigger". Like a 8 or 10" sub. Maybe you could also try to replace the flat top and bottom with a sheet of plywood or similar. This would greatly reduce the print time and also reduce the chance of warping. Or would the mix of materials have too much of a negative impact on the sound quality?

@natalietrinh381

I'm thinking of experimenting with this once I have access to a makerspace again. I'm also thinking that it may be possible to intentionally do a no bottom layer print at no infill and thin walls, then post print, mixing an epoxy/sand composite (or even mortar) in place of the infill. This would, in theory, reduce the amount of filiment used (let's admit it, it's not cheap), and replace it with a stiffer material with more mass. Might even arguably be easier to produce than just a straight up print.

@aaronb1138

The design is really simple with all straight walls and small enough to just make from 1/2" MDF or plywood and perhaps some large dowel stock routered to shape if you want to replicate the port entries while adding a form of stiffer bracing.

I'm high key thinking of getting these printed. I have a 91 d350 and with a single cab it's hard to get subs in it and this guy sold me on the product so I might be rocking them lol

True legend 🤘 they ability for you to convey your knowledge is 🔥

I really appreciate the honest review and opinion on the 3d printer.

Best channel ! amazing work man

This deserves more views

Amazing ! A useful tip when soldering: remind yourself "I'm not a painter !" Hehehe. Try to heat more the zone with proper fluxe so you do not need to "paint" with the iron. The correct amount of heat and time will improve your solder joints ;) Great video !

great as usual ,,, this guy really does go down to 11.

Had to like and subscribe just because your video editing was awesome, and the video was good too

WOW...version 3 is pretty amazing....version 2 is no joke either....it is so awesome to me that a 3 inch driver can do that much bass...or in v.3 MORE bass...truly impressive :)

I immediately subbed once I saw the mococo drink. lol Great work by the way.

Does transmissionline or the use of a passive woofer allow for smaller enclosure for the same amount of bass? Also. - In which ways cant this v3 substitute a "propper" subwoofer? Best regards!

What about making an ultra flat subwoofer with the W6-2253S (or other low profile drivers)? It would be perfect to put under the table as pc sub speaker

Rounded corners tend to warp less. An enclosure would also help with your issues. Just some foil faced foam taped together and set over the top does wonders.

I'm pretty impressed! I rebuilt my printer and was looking for some large prints to try. Printed just about perfectly! I did have a bit of problem with the corners lifting, but that's my fault. It goes under my desk, so I'm not too worried! I also had to sand the tongue and groove to get them to fit together. Also my fault and I haven't fixed that yet! Also... Don't use 5 minute epoxy. It takes too long to cover the whole joint! I just barely made it. I pared it with a pair of the Back Horn sphere speakers with Tang Band W3-1364SA speakers I had laying around. Sound great! I'm powering them with a Fosi Audio BT30D-S with 50+50+100 watts. This speaker makes a great setup for my desk! You'd never believe this was 4 3" speakers! Sounds so much bigger! I can't believe the sub makes so much bass!!! Hexibase, you’re amazing! Thank you so much!!!

Just wondering, what would happen if you use hexabox V.3 with 10 inch or bigger subwoofers? What about using MDF and wood instead of plastic? I think it sound more on the warmer side.

I can be a hobby sound engineer thanks to your videos. Great Content, very informative and academic.

I'm not getting that deep base on my v2 single. There is alot of air noise like its free loading. I didn't use a gasket around the driver which is probably where I need to start.

As a HexiBase fan, I love your builds, but please Peter, try making your speakers fit in most 3D printers with 220x220 printing base. Thank you!

Do you remember when I suggested some project involving a soundbar with cheap speakers? I have another one: a project involving reference speakers for sound mix. The size could fit on a print bed and speaker could be sourced.

🥰 New subscriber because of quality wisdom coupled with incredible video production skills. You are Awesome! 🥰

Given the long print times and the always present potential for a printing screw-up, have you considered a hybrid enclosure? Print the complex curves but use sheet MDF (or whatever) for the large pieces? Dare I even suggest a hobby grade CNC router as a new toy, err ... tool. 😉

@hexibase I'm curious what the db level increase is for the blue box. Just by adding the speaker you increased by 3db (double the speakers, or double the power). If you got more than 3db increase, then the box design is more efficient...though it does have a nasty resonance at around 80Hz. Perhaps some fill would mitigate some of that.

so i am curious to know...would a change in filament material (say carbon fiber) change the audio response of these designs? i know they are concepts and "bigger" things are coming...but was just curious to know about any possible tonal changes with the construction material used...

I honestly wonder if these acoustic chamber techniques could be applied to guitar speaker cabinets in order to improve bass response for small combo amps, and why nobody seems to have tried it yet.

Glass bed is definitely a must for best prints.

Once again, nice design. One quick question; I'm sure you have covered this in one of your previous videos, but how can you measure the response without anechoic chamber? Do you use near field measurement or something else?

Using a 4 order band pass for a single 18 for home theater where is the best place to locate the wiring to prevent port noise and best location for the terminal block on the outside of the enclosure?
