Is a Beta 10 a good candidate for a TL? I'm playing around with the worksheets from quarter-wave.com, which I don't really understand to begin with, and I can't seem to make the far field response very good...
I could, but I don't really understand how to decide on the parameters, so I don't think they will mean much...
Just plugged in some numbers.
You could use :
L=90cm (35,43in)
ratio=0.35
SO/SL=4*Sd
rport=6cm (2,36in)
Lport=3cm (1,18in)
as a starting point.
And please wait until others chime in before you cut the wood.😉

Ok, Donoman, if you try the figures from Joensd, show us the graphs and we can work together from there.
BTW, I know how you feel, I spent almost two full days learning how those sheets work. I only succeeded after help from planet10, and after I threw away my preconceived notions of what a TL should be, (i.e. how I used to build them years ago!). 😉

That doesn't look too bad, what does the impedance graph look like?
Don't be upset by the apparent high roll off, TL bass works better with the room, almost as well as bipolar, and you gain quality by no nasty port or box effects.

Ok, that graph does look better than the ones I had... Thanks guys 🙂
I won't be cutting 'til probably next month anyway.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
Regarding this is in the subwoofer forum:Is a Beta 10 a good candidate for a TL?
Do you already have the drivers?
IMHO you could get better subwoofer drivers for the money.
(though most are not as efficient)
I have it now, and I got it FOR the efficiency. Well, it's for a 3-way, maybe I should have put it in the regular loudspeaker forum... My bad 😀 But it's still doing the job of bass, so I wasn't sure, since my mids and tweet are sealed anyway...
If you wanna move it to the regular loudspeaker forum, feel free.
