SD315A-88 12" DVC Subwoofer 4 Ohm - Dayton Audio
It is a WAF question due to the spatial constraints placed upon me.
Parts Express haven't got back to me yet and it's been a week. Does anybody have any test data for these drivers when wired in series for 16R??
I was thinking a half dozen of these wired to 16 Ohms and then wired in parallel might be able to handle the power of the new subwoofer amp.
It's a configuration I've done once before with some cheap Tandy /Radio Shack woofer and the result of that was pleasing [ although it only took a few years for teenage son to destroy them by turning the bass boost to infinity] I thought a half dozen of these drivers would work out quite well for the home theatre.

Not me, just you can see in Ron E's DVC wiring comparison that Re, Le doubles, eff. drops 6 dB, Pe stays the same: https://www.diyaudio.com/forums/att...2d1199931885-svc-dvc-conversion-dvcparams-pdf
So nobody here has used this driver?
I'm tempted to organise getting the half dozen but not without some real person feedback on the performance.
I may have a buyer for my CV Vega154 to help pay for them.
Past experience with running different drivers in parallel or Series parallel wasn't exactly perfect, and as reminded in another post all drivers being the same is best practice.
WAF about height means I can't use the four 10" stacked vertically and wired to give a 4R load
