Effects on distortion when shorting one coil of a DVC driver?

Spatz · 26th February 2010, 04:38 AM

Hi,

I've been wondering how connecting only one VC of a DVC chassis affects distortion levels in the midrange. With the second VC shorted, distortion could be much less due to the additional copper in the gap (kind of a demodulating ring).

Has anyone ever measured something like this?

I'm asking because I'm thinking about using the Dayton SD215-88 as a midbass to 1k, but the distortion is quite high in the lower midrange. Less distortion, and this speaker would be perfekt for my needs...

Bye,

Spatz

Thanks, very interesting, but there is nothing about the reduction of distortion in this paper...
