Title: Can Someone Tell Me If These 8's Will Work
Post by only126db on 03/17/10 at 15:15:24

Ok I am really thinking about running a couple 8's I have, but on the plans page it says to model the driver as a 4th order bp but I've seen on here to model for a sealed enclosure.

I've also seen where it's better to use a low fs driver.

So before I waste my time and $$ could someone with experience with this enclosure let me know if I can use these drivers?

Specs=
FS 40hz
re 7.73ohm
le 6.14mh
qts .529
qes .588
qms 5.273
vas .54cu ft - 15.4L
84.4db 1w/m
xmax 8mm - .31"
rms 200w
pk 400w
displ .035
recom sealed .3
recom ported .625

thx in advance

Driver is a waste of time. QTS is too high, and more importantly the efficiency of 84dB is too low. Find something that is 90dB or more.
