Is there a Dayton Audio PS180-8 6-1/2" (Point Source Full-Range Neo Driver) bookshelf speaker cabinet design you can share or point me to.
A simple front loaded port cabinet is ok
Thanks

If possible is it possible to explain why this doesnt sound good with traditional Class AB amps.? or pls point me to a thread which explains this.
Thanks.
Not simple, but a PS180 miniOnken i did. There is a much larger one for the PS220.

I get 7.8 L tuned to 67 Hz with a 3.75 cm [1.25"] dia x 4.5 cm [1.77"] using its Klippel specs, though of course going bigger and tuning lower with some baffle step compensation [BSC] is an option if a near-field app and/or will be used primarily for background [mood] music.

To start with is there a simple cabinet to start with.
Please excuse this entry on the Dayton PS-180 rather than the PS-220 but, I.M.H.O., it's six of one and half a dozen of the other, unless it's being used as a full range. In that case, I would think the 8 incher would yield a better low end.
The link given is to the parts Express Project Gallery where all the details of that project are given. I might also point out that I was somewhat concerned by the 10 to 15 dB rise in response of the driver when measured outside although it isn't that far off from the 10 dB rise above about 4 khz as seen in the Dayton response curves. The actual response as measured in the room is considerably flatter due to heavy drapes, a plush sofa and armchair and wall to wall soft carpeting.
Prior to buying the PS-120, consideration had been given to the PS-220 but since the system is bi-amped at 200 hz, bass response wasn't necessary.
Consideration had been given to other drivers also, like the Tang-Band 8 inch units, W8-1808 and W8-1772 but the cost couldn't be justified at the time despite the flatter high frequency response, which, in all probability would have drooped down due to the acoustics of the room. I may still make purchase of the Tang-Bands.
I do a lot of experimenting with speakers; that started in the 70's. There are currently 3 audio systems in the house with six speaker systems. I live alone; that's how I'm able to get away with such eccentricities.
Anyway, here's the link. I hope the information there proves useful.

Hello. I ask you to tell this plan is suitable for building a cabinet for the dynamics of Fostex Fe206en? How will the lower bound of the bass be?
