Title: Speaker choice for WO32
Post by rmt on 05/02/06 at 22:36:53

Any comments on this speaker?  A little low in the power handling but otherwise?  Pioneer 10 inch. Somewhere in the specs that this speaker does not work?

Hi RMT. This driver looks a little high in the Fs. Its asking a lot for a 35hzFs driver to deliver deep bass. I used the Vifa drivers Steve recomended, they have an Fs 0f 24hz, and I would not think you would want to use any driver with a higher Fs. Just my 2 cents worth ;D  ;)

Besides, foam surrounds are known to rot away after some (say 10) years of service. They might be using a different foam on recent speakers though...

I think the low Qts value is good for use in a horn, so that should not be a problem.
