New to the in-depth tech side of hi-fi. I've long been a listener with a good ear, who knows components, how they work, and how to use them. Now Im about to make my first set of loudspeakers.
I have some Dynaudio drivers that were made specifically for my Volvo C70. All the rights to the technical specs are owned by Volvo, and Dynaudio is not allowed to release them. I do have a guy working on this for me, but most likely I will end up with nothing but what Volvo gives me, which is squat:
System frequency range: 35-25000 Hz
Power handling, nom.: 100W
Power handling, max.: 300W
Impedance: 4 Ohm (8 Ohm for 8" midwoofers)
Sensitivity: 90 db/W/m
The drivers are:
(4) "soft dome" 1.1" tweeters with ferro fluid suppresion and neodymium magnet. x-overs designed for 6dB per octave with a point of 2,500HZ.
(4) 6.5" bass/mid-range with magnesium polymer (MSP) cones, ventilated magnet 75mm aluminum voice coil
(2) 8" Midwoofers with ventilated magnet 75mm aluminum voice coil
Is there any way to measure specs on the speakers to do some more in-depth modeling before I get to the design phase?
Thanks in advance.

go to the AudioXpress website
here's a link to the books on speakers:

With a signal generator, voltmeter, a couple of resistors and a bit of modeling clay (you can use your kids playdough, or window caulking compound) you can measure all of the Thiele Small paramters.
