I have a pair of Focal Profile 918 speakers.
The midbass woofer is the reference 6W4359.
The bass woofer is the reference 6W4459.
Does anybody know if this midbass woofer (6W4359) is capable of reproducing low-bass frequencies as the other woofer of the speaker (6W4459)?
I found this page on the net where somebody buit a tower speaker by using this same midbass as full range woofer, which gave me the hope that I could use it as such too.

Meanwhile, I tried to get an answer to this question directly at Focal in France, but all I got was this reply: contact your local Focal retailer.
It happens that my local Focal retailer doesn't give me an answer.
So it would be great if anybody could answer me this question .
Thanks in advance.

In addition to the post above, does anyone know what's the nominal impedance of the Focal 6W4359 woofer?
Here it is said to be 4 Ohms
And here it it said to be 8 Ohms
So I am confused about this information too.

The Re is the same in both sources of info, clearly there's a typo on the German page. Do they sell multimeters in Brazil?
Focal drive units of that era tend to have higher Fs than a DIYer would like it to.
The 6W4459 datasheet is needed to be able to answer the question.

Hi, does your reply refer to the first post?
Are you saying that the midbass woofer (6W4359) is capable of reproducing low-bass frequencies as the other woofer of the speaker (6W4459)?
Thanks.
Hi, No i don't replay to the first post. The 6W4359 can go as low as the 6W4459 not in the same box and load. The 6W4359 has more sensitivity 89 dB vs 86dB for the 6W4459. In the Focal Profile 918 the two drivers works in a 2.5Ways 6W4439 for low bass compensates baffle step and 6W4359 for bass/midrange.
