SPICA TC-50 Measurements - Woofer Needed

PB2 · 18th September 2008, 02:47 PM

I'm working on a pair of SPICA TC-50's documented here:
http://baselaudiolabs.googlepages.com/MR-TC50-REB.html

I mention there that one system is more efficient than the other and found that one of the woofers had been replaced.
The B system has an S3.8-10 woofer, so it must have been replaced at some point, it should be an H3.7-8 woofer. The best solution would be to replace it with the correct
service code, or at least and H spec woofer. Anyone have a spare H3.7-8 for sale?

I'm going to try a bucking magnet to provide a small increase in efficiency.

The other system has the correct woofer.

TIA

I've determined that the peak frequency seems to have shifted in most of these so we're not concerned about that part of the spec, just that it is an H type HIF 17JVX woofer for a later SPICA TC-50s.

Thanks,
