Advantages of Series Crossover vs Parallel for Subs & Open Baffle

[AllenB]

baggerbole, Vituixcad is well known. If you are downloading from the correct source then it is unlikely to have problems.

You can likely still insert the passive bass boost circuit into your series crossover. You just need to model it and work out the kinks. It's going to be very sensitive to DCR of the inductors which needs to be low. I think it will help (4-7dB is good) I just estimate it's not quite enough boost.

Hi Perry, I will play with it.
Until then, I went back to the old trusty EA15A in the series config, with the 1808 (https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/my-open-baffle-journey.394806/post-7959804) - the sound is gorgeous.

Hi Perry, I will play with it.

I will have to ! Along with ARTA suite, REW, VituixCAD...
All of them are loaded and installed in my PC...
I even have a dedicated external soundcard...
I will have to take the time to return to this kind of softwares and learn their idiosycrasies, after leaving my obsolete LspLAB and SpectraLAB (thank you Windows) that I used for years...
Yes : I'm lazy and miss time to (re)do all this !
