A Small, Efficient Monitor

surf,sun&sound · 9th November 2001, 08:13 AM

I need to build a small monitor that is as efficient as possible preferably 92db or better. It will be a 2 way system with a f3 around 60hz or so.

Anyone with a project under their that they want to share, before I start from scratch?

Thanks,

3S

If you posted to the Loudspeaker Asylum, someone would
tell you very promptly that what you want is physically
impossible: Hoffman's Iron Law, based on sound physical
principles, tells you that you need to juggle small box
size, efficiency and extension - you can have two at once,
but not all three.
