Modifying the Tang Band W4-1052SA
driver |
A Gem-Tac glue ring, 1.5 mm in diameter and 9 mm in
from the inside diameter of the surround, plus a simple equalizer
circuit brings the Tang Band W4-1052SA to high fidelity performance
equal to any four-inch driver available. The physical cone
modification add so little mass that original T/S specifications
remain valid. With the modification, the 1052SA becomes a
great choice for center channel or surround speakers in a home
theatre. Add a sub woofer for frequencies below 100 Hz, and
the driver satisfies every requirement of high fidelity main
speakers. |

McKenzie Acoustical Design does not sell Tang Band
drivers. I offer these modification designs free of
charge. If you decide to buy these drivers and make our
modifications, I ask that you buy them from Parts Express and link
to their Web site through the following link. There is no cost to you, but
Parts Express will pay McKenzie Acoustical Design a small commission
for the sale. I will use that revenue to produce more driver
modifications. | |
