fe 103 notch filter - Click HERE for Original Thread
Jhovis
I have lost a diagram I had for a notch filter. I've searched here and didn't find it either. Does anyone have a link with a diagram to making a notch filter for the fe103?

Hi Jeff,
the filter for the late and lamented RS40-1197 might be a starting point.
.25mH 3.9ohms 6.8yF

I hope this helps a bit.

Cheers,
Pit

Thanks Pit,
I also found this. The address is similar to your name...is this your page?: http://hometown.aol.de/hphinder/homepage/index.html

Look at the bottom of the page. I assume I run this in series off the positive speaker terminal?
Thanks,
Jeff

Jhovis,

As you probably know there are two types of notch filters, series and parallel. The parallel unit runs the notch elements in parallel but in series with the driver. This is the one Pit is most likely discussing.

The series unit runs the notch elements in series but are paralleled to the driver. This is most often used for impedance matching and is less commonly used to actually notch. He can confirm this.

EDIT: I noticed he explains this in his site and yes he is talking about a a parallel filter.

Thanks Cal,
Yes, I'll make the filter parallel and run it in series with the driver.

Jeff,
this is crazy! I've given up aol some five years ago and they still have that thing on their server?
The values shown on that page are for the 103Sigma which is quite a different animal - to save money, try the 1197 values first and play with the resistor. A higher value gives you a deeper notch - it's a matter of personal taste and favourite (or enforced) SPL level whether you shoot for ~linear or a slight "loudness" effect.

Cheers,
Pit

What response peak are you trying to control? As usual the Fostex published frequency response is "generous" but there seems to be a peak between 7000 to 9000 Hz. Is this the one?
