Hallo,
I'm planning to build a three way loudspeaker with poor components. Since italian names usually give an hi-end touch to a speaker: -Opera, Bel Canto, Concerto, Puccini and so on... I've decided to give an italian name to this project too: "Poverello" that means poor but in a nice way. I found this 13 cm speaker that I would like to be the center of the loudspeakers, these are the characteristics: 60W 8Ohm 88db Re 6Ohm Fs 65Hz Qms 2,65 Qes 0,52 Qts 0,43 MMS 6,5g I think that a low mass will be usefull on voices and transients Cms 0,9 mm/N also this value seem ok VAS 7,3 dmc Bxl 5,5 Wb/m Xmax 3mm Le 0.55 http://www.ciare.com/pdf/catalogo/PM130.pdf This is the frequency response. In a 0,7 Qtc sealed box the woofer reach a -3db poin at 106hz. I know the Qts is a little low. I think that this will be a nice way to naturally filter the low end and mix it up with a sub unit. What do You think about this? Please note that this unit cost just 20€ I think could be a nice place to start for a poor three way system. Have You got any suggestion? |

That driver is peaky and I don't think it will sound very good.
If you really want to be 'poverello', perhaps you should go 2-way, but use a better woofer. Consider the HW132, it has a smoother response. |

I couldn't find a price list to compare prices,
MW130 looks OK as a mid driver, but my pick of the drivers is the HW203. Have a look at their projects HO3.21 and, for a 3 way, HO3.4 If you go 2-way, fewer xover parts mean you've got more money to spend on good speakers..... which is the key to a good sound in the first place.... |
