Tang Band W4-930SF - Full range

ttan98 · 20th May 2010, 02:12 AM

Looks like Tangband has introduced a new 4" full range made of paper with 89dB spl. A detailed spec. go to Madisound,

Tang Band W4-930SF 4" Paper Cone Full Range from Madisound

looks interesting and cheap too at $23 each.

It looks like an excellent alternative to the Fostex FE103En as it has a neo magnet and more bass.

But it has a hard-to-work-with 6 ohm so we can't wire 2 or 5 for a line array unless you've got an higher end amp that can handle 3ohm (closer to 4) loads.

What is more interesting is that TB is no longer exclusive to PE.

I hope PE and Madisound can stock more TB drivers. There are some more interesting ones that they don't stock, for example the spec-wise excellent W3-594SB.

Depends on the transport cost I may buy 2 units to try.

That's exactly what I'm thinking.

I really like TB drivers. Maybe Madisound will differentiate themselves from PE and offer different models?

I ordered a pair last week. I want to build a bookshelf size enclosure. Would plans for the fe103 fit the TB?

WinISD suggests BR of 14L and fb of 59Hz, port length 1.46" with dia of 1.5", f3:55Hz
max group delay:13.3ms
If I were you, I would sacrifice some bass for less group delay. 8L with fb of 73Hz looks good, port length 2" with dia. of 1.5", f3:70Hz.Max group delay:8.1ms.

Thanks, I downloaded winisd. I have a 9L test br box that I can modify base on winisd results.

Are these candidates for a Onken enclosure?
