8" woofers 40-250hz

Stunning work on the cab 🙂 @TheoSweden
Why 8 x satori 7,5" ???? The sensitivity ? For me you have a mismatch of drivers with the purifi 6,5". The purifi is a very high end driver, no compromise here !!!!
You can go to the SEAS L22ROY2 a far better candidate in this configuration. The SEAS L19RNX1 can be a good candidate with less volume and cheaper.

I have been very satisfied with the SB23MFCL45-8 woofer. It is usually thought of as an 8" subwoofer. It has an Fs of 29 Hz and an Xmax of 10 mm, which mean that it is good at producing deep bass. The sensitivity is low, but with 4 (or 6) of them, the total Sd is quite large so the efficiency will be quite good.

I used them in a 3-way application. Two of them in parallel crossed at 300 Hz to a midrange.

Hi
Thanks for your ideas, I have build OB speakers with 4 x 12ob150s but I sold them. I have also build 10-15 different OP baffle spekers in price range from cheap to very expensive during the last 20 years. Now I bought two cabinets that I would like to try a different approach with.
I’ve done both, and while you can get more “punch”/tactile quality with a sealed or a ported design, what happens is that when that freq. range is played ”images” within that range move forward in the soundstage and “bunch-up”. Clarity in general also lessens.

Anyway, now that you know what the result will be, to mitigate some of that:

Suggestion for 8” sealed:

Yeah they look great I think.
They are printed in one piece yes, 16mm thick walls Bitumen maths on the inside. "Woodfilled granule-plastic" something. I might make them stiffer if needed yes, maybe by adding something to the outer layer to, we'll see.

They are build for 8x Satori 7,5" and a Mundorf AMT in the middle. As I wrote Im going to use Purifi 6,5" and Mundorf AMT29 in MTM so I think 6x8" also fits but with small volume behind so 4x8" might be better depending of what woofers I use ofcourse.
Ok.... never seen 3D print that big.
Please bring on some details, weight, price and company that did that 😀

Thanks, thats a chunky driver, Im afraid the "transients" arnt that great. Its always a tradeoff ofcourse. Maybe I dont need this speaker to go so very low and could use more sensitive ones... thats a little how I think at the moment.

Those drivers are a little interesting, But can they be bought without the other stuff?
 
-pointless to purchase without their plate-amp. :blush: (The plate-amp has the current-sensing “servo” function that really set’s it apart from other solutions - it’s basically a feedback system connected to a 2nd coil on the driver.)

Though, yes you can purchase drivers and plate-amps separately.

No they might be some of the biggest speakers 3D printed 🙂
Not sure its the exact same method but might be. They are made in southern Sweden.
2 cabinets with baffle on a pallet with some protection weight around 160kg. Costed around 3200euro but I payed a lot less.
