A Hands-On Learning Experience
So, what can participants expect during the three-day training? On Day 1, each team will be assigned a vehicle to build a subwoofer enclosure. Whether it’s sealed, ported, or bandpass, it’s time to get our hands dirty! Once the enclosures are complete, the vehicles will be put to the test using a Term-Lab SPL measuring device. Get ready to establish a baseline SPL number, as competitors aim for impressive scores (think around 140.2 dB!).
Experimentation and Innovation!
But hold on, the fun doesn’t stop there! Over the next two days, teams will have the opportunity to dive into different enclosure types to boost their vehicle’s SPL score. This is where creativity and engineering come into play! Attendees will have access to advanced tools including 3D printers and CNC machines to help bring their designs to life.
Learning Beyond the Basics
These sessions will not only focus on the practical aspects of subwoofer enclosure design, but also on vital theory. Participants will explore advanced design theory, material selection, port and chamber optimization, airflow management, and tuning techniques that aim to maximize performance without compromising sound quality. It’s a comprehensive curriculum designed to enhance understanding and application of audio technology.
Celebrate Your Success!
As if all this excitement wasn’t enough, the top performers in the training will walk away with a special “1728” T-shirt, an exclusive memento of their participation in the Bass Maker Factory. What an incredible way to showcase your commitment to learning and growth!
