Hello community,
this is my first post. I built some speakers in the past, but never used any computer simulation to design them.
This time I designed a bass-reflex loudspeaker using Boxsim (Boxsim - Homepage) with Visaton drivers.
I have attached the frequency range that Boxsim computed. As you can see, I did a tradeoff of losing sensitivity for gaining bass response (the 10mH coil in parallel with the 2.2/1.5Ohm resistors is basically a low-shelf filter).
The frequency range, as seen on screen is +/-2dB @ 32Hz-20kHz which seems extremely good for a loudspeaker of this size - But that's all only on screen... Since I have no experience in this domain, I would like to get some approval/criticism from the loudspeaker experts in here. I don't want to build the speaker only to find out that it sucks. Therefore, please go ahead and let me know what you think of this design. All criticism welcome - but please always with rational arguments. Thanks in advance!
For reference, here are the drivers I used:
W 170 S - 4 Ohm | Visaton
G 20 SC - 8 Ohm | Visaton
