The glory of this design is that darn near anything works in em.

It's easy to change drivers to test drive them.

I've built three and used whatever subs I had around and every one made me smile.

thanks!

I like to know if there is some thiele parameters that a driver should have for working good in this cab?

Is there some driver 12" and 15" that is used in the original design by Mr Derkert ?

please give me the name of some driver to look for.

I need clean musical bass between 30-70 hz.

I listen in mormal level. I do not need 120db.

cheers !

re-read this ^ almost any driver works. if you have 12s build the hwk12, if you have 15s build the 15" version.
