V4 carries 7.60 inches of mounting depth and 19 mm of travel on a 27 Hz motor, and that depth is why the Down Fire stands 8.10 inches tall for it. The wedge takes the motor in depth instead: 27 inches wide, 13.5 tall, 11.00 inches at the top and 15.91 at the base, with 1.37 cubic feet net vented at 34 Hz through a 16.9 square inch port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eA 19 mm motor in a cabinet this size costs flatness, 4.48 dB of anechoic ripple, the widest in the line, and buys reach: an F3 of 29.1 Hz, the lowest of the tens here, with 3.11 dB of in-car spread across 25 to 60 Hz at 34 Hz tuning. Image Dynamics' own manual puts the IDMAX10 in 1.5 cubic feet gross tuned to 35 Hz for its Universal alignment; this cabinet is 1.78 gross, vented a hertz lower. The port takes 22.23 of the 22.55 inches a 27 inch cabinet gives and runs at 21.7 metres per second in the channel against a 22.1 limit, 13.3 at the mouth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"df-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eTrunk-load wedge, explained\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"df-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe 20 degree face is the seat side\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA factory rear seat back\n    leans about 20 degrees off vertical.

That puts the base at 15.91, two and a half inches deeper than the cabinet is tall, and the width at 27 rather than 30 because the flattest curve came out there. 6.91 inches of flat floor stay clear in front of the panel.

The floor and the raked back wall\n  are two of its three sides; the third is a single panel bevelled to sit flush against both.\n  It runs across the cabinet, opens into the box at the far end and exits through the side\n  panel: a straight run with no bend, 22.23 inches of centreline path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe channel is an isosceles triangle with 6.00 inch legs, 16.9 square inches, running at\n  21.7 metres per second at the tuning frequency. The mouth is that same triangle cut through\n  the side panel with its three edges rounded over at 1\/2 inch, so the opening at the face is\n  27.7 square inches and air leaves it at 13.3 metres per second, against the 17.0 metre per\n  second threshold where a slot port starts to chuff. The panel's throat end carries a 3\/8 inch\n  roundover for the same reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"df-highlight\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis enclosure ships dry.\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyfill goes in every sealed Proline X cabinet\n    we build.
