I dont know if i screwed up link but what do you guys think of the new 6.5 inch woofer? 11.5 mm of x-max. I think its really cool. Some sort of mini super sub project. I would like to make a 6th order bandpass unit with this but QTS is off? I tried some freebee modeling software and it said this. 6th order seems very complicated. Ideas for this woofer? JIMBO

Look at its sensitivity.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

A driver that goes to 50Hz is not a subwoofer, no matter what the excursion. The only advantage it has is for someone who absolutely cannot use an eight. Performance that is worthy of being called a sub-woofer is available from its 8 inch big brother or from the MCM 55-2421.

83 dB on air?!!!!!!!!

I would wonder what someone want to do with an 83dB driver. Imagine it not in a corner! 79db accounting diffraction loss and room gain? wanna test your power outlet?

20L box ported low and it'd be a great computer sub. I don't remember the port size, but I think it was like 2"dia by 15" or similar.
