I have a number of b139's and was wondering if slot loading them would be a sensible thing to do. I was thinking about 4 per channel. Wanting to cover the freq range upto 300hz where my jbl 2482's take over.
The other thought i was musing was how to load them, OB, BR or passive radiator PR ( i have a number of b139's which rub which i was going to take the magnets off) The reason for mentioning the PR is i thought this may improve the speed of the arrangement, as i am worried it may be slow compared with the CD's

I doubt about that... close/more to ""fre-
quency response from below 500 Hz"". 😀

I currently cross at 350hz, i just have a big horns!!
I am proposing to use the B139 Type 6171 (mk2), similar specs to the later SP1044, just a bit bigger area.

Hi,
I have been modelling a slot loaded design and seems like that the plenum (cavity) resonance makes easily the limit around 200Hz. The depth of the plenum determines resonance, around 40cm deep gives resonance at 180Hz. The deeper - the lower resonance. Resonace means also huge phase jumps and poor impulse response at reonance and above it.
So, seems like I don't recommend using PPSL as high as you are planning
Hornresp is a wonderful tool for design, but a bit difficult
