Detailed Cabinet Volume Calculations and Theory
Ready to dive in a little deeper? The full formula for calculating ‘optimum box volume’ is: Vas, Qts and fs are all known numbers, and are available from the TS Parameters published for the speaker driver you want to use. However to use the above formula, you need to determine fb which is the tuning […]
Driver TS Parameters: Mmd & Mms
If you’re comparing drivers in detail, it will help to understand some of the more intricate TS Parameters, as over time it will help you differentiate between different drivers and identify which applications they are more suited for. For example, for a high power 18″ horn loaded bass bin, you will probably be looking for […]
Driver TS Parameters: Fs (Free Air Resonance)
The resonant frequency (Fs) is the frequency at which a speaker cone and voice coil naturally oscillate with minimal resistance. At this frequency, the driver moves more easily, requiring less energy to reach high excursion. Ever seen that famous footage of a bridge wobbling like jelly before collapsing? That’s a classic example of resonance in […]
