What would be the best cabinet for live music using an Eminence Delta Pro-18C 18" Driver 4 Ohm?

I dont know what f3 and spl mean. We have had a five string bass and would like to use our keyboard more. Our subkick is a 28" and we struggle to keep it up in the mix.

F3 is an industry standard that indicates where a speaker/enclosure loses 3dbs and SPL is a standard measurement of sound . I believe that a 5 string can play to about low 30,s Hz,s ? . how big of a crowd do you play for ?

You are not going to do 500 with 2 sub,s . How is your wood working , do you have tools? . Are you willing to buy new drivers? .

They would work in Cubo 18 Extended to get you started, if you decide you need more SPL, build something bigger. Just remember these drivers aren't exactly monsters, use a 40 Hz high pass and if you need more SPL, other drivers might probably get you more.

Best regards
