ZDT3 Woofer

stangbat · 19th January 2008, 03:38 AM

Zaph's ZDT3 uses the 7" Dayton RS180. I have a feeling he is using the RS180S-8, the 8 ohm model not, the RS180-4 (4 ohm).

His tests call it the RS180, but the test data makes me think it is the RS180S (Re = 8.3 ohms). In the article he calls it the RS180 (no S in the model number), however in the article he states that it is a 4 ohm design, and two 8 ohm woofers in parallel back this up.

Anyone agree?

He posted a reply in another forum. It is the RS180S, the 8 ohm version. I should have known better, but I got excited and pulled the trigger without double checking.

I've built this design as a gift for my father. They sounded great and he loves them.

Yes it is the RS180 S 8 ohm version.

Brent
