Title: 12" Driver parameters that will work in DB12?
Post by Josh K on 01/07/09 at 22:57:46

Sorry if this question has been asked and answered a hundred times but I didn't find it easily. By the way, this forum is way slow (as in overhead) even at work on super high speed network. This made it tedious to find info.

I have 4 12" TC2+ drivers looking for a home. I saw the DB212 plans but I could find no mention of what drivers were suitable for the box. I am not about to buy new drivers and I don't want to buy the plans till after I know the suitability. Is it new and thus lack of info?

This is for home hi-fi, not car boomer. SQ is of upmost importance.

Thanks,
Josh

I have only built one of the DB12s and was pleased with its perfomance. I used a subwoofer with about 10mm Xmax and TC looks to have about 20mm Xmax. I think it would work but with that kind of Xmax you could run into port noise. I would suggest a ported enclosure for best overall performance and range(SQ). With that kind of sub SPL will prolly be a given even if you are not wanting loud. The only way you will know if to build and BOOM. Just my two cents.
