One thread per driver class seems good for posterity, I'll probably do a 604 thread as well. If better form, we could just post all to this single thread.
Alas, tables are not working. Credit to AllenB for the CODE tag suggestion used below.
In an effort to calculate the missing values, I used the DATS box method, but the values seemed suspect.
I switched to added mass, but will ultimately only use the added mass f(s) to calc the additional parameters with TSPCalculator for a subsequent post.
Added mass was courtesy a $1 Walmart 7" trivet.
The concentric circles and doo-dads came off by hand with a little flexing.
The resulting larger circle and 6 2mmx6mm neo magnets held it from the underside for a total 81 grams added mass.
Altec 515-8G free air parameters and again with +81g added mass:
The select values above, from the DATS formatted TXT option.
...but notice that certain values do not jive with when matched with their screencaped counterpart.
e.g.:
515-8A 'A' R(e)= 6.36 Ohms vs 6.374 Ohms
In some cases e.g. L(e) the difference is known: it is the 10k measurement vs 1k measurment.
I can't explain the other discrepancies yet.
