Default New T-TQWT for Christmas

Decided I need a sub for music that will fill the gap from 20-80Hz created by using full range drivers in single driver enclosures. Here's what I have come up with, hopefully to be completed before Christmas or at least for the new year. This sub will always be in a corner so decided to model in 0.5 Pi, but the response is still just as flat in 2 Pi just with less extension and obviously much less efficiency.

Any comments on the design are greatly appreciated.

Awesome designs bjorno, so you think a 30Hz shoulder is better for music than 20Hz? Also what is the SPL response combined window telling me?

After tweaking the original abit and then changing the values to suit the plan I came up with in sketchup I got a response that was a bit smoother. I tried to plan your designs bjorno but fitting the driver in seemed to be a bit of a challenge, I guess thats the joy of working with 15's.

Hi,
The FR looks better and the gldy looks good too;To be sure if your design is good, please post the HR input screen and yes 30 Hz IMO is low enough for most music (hint: look at f-10dB for typical in room experienced BW).

See my simple picture suggestion on how to fold a T-TQWT for easy driver maintenance and for easy accessing (tweaking) the stuffings:

Thumbs up Looks over-all good

Hi,

Forgot yesterday to post this picture belonging to 'LB1560_Home_xmax=11mm-test2', see the first picture.

Picture#2 is your final design, picture#3= Home TH suggestion and picture#4, #3 and #4 for closer IR examination using HOLMImpulse program.
