Iv got a Peerless 10 inch passive radiator (830468) that i plan to use with the assassin.

I want to build something that plays deep and loud. Do you have any links/spreadsheets/software that can help me design a PR box?

Hmm, per Tom Danley we want a PR that has ~1.5 - 2x the displacement as the subwoofer, so you run the risk of bottoming out the PR in at least some alignments. As a general rule-of-thumb (ROT) it's not a good plan tune a vented alignment < ~0.707xFs, but this one looks like it can be pushed to ~16 Hz in an EBS alignment if corner loaded IF the PR can handle it at whatever available power you have to drive it.

What are the 830468's specs?

Unibox is a popular freeware Excel program that can do PR alignments.

what is an EBS alignment?

I will play with Unibox and see what I can come up with.

Thanks
