What the heck would you use this in?(design)

Wow!?????

(legit broke in…)

qw pipe? Parallel qw pipe? Horny fun? Sealed and dsp ?

Don´t think so.

It´s lacking/hiding a TON of parameters, but I was instantly put off by the HUGE moving mass of 418 grams ... almost a pound!!! 😱

Is that a loudspeaker or an Industrial shaker?

Unless some seriously wrong values were put into that simulation software.

Industrial shaker !!😆
Not an Engineer, huh!
Not much clue on Electromechanical devices either?
Here,learn a little on transducers which by themselves have around a pound (or more) moving mass.
Which is NONSENSE in a Loudspeaker.
There is a World besides (typically horrendous) car speakers.

"As XB-1 nears the end of ground testing before moving to Mojave for flight test, there are a variety of physical tests that must be performed on the ground before the aircraft can be proven safe to fly.

One of the more involved tests is the ground vibration test, or GVT. It's a unique test during which the aircraft is softly supported. It’s then “excited” by attaching electrodynamic shakers to the aircraft. The “shakers” are similar to a music speaker, but the shaker has a thin rod in place of a cone. On a speaker, a cone pushes air backwards and forwards to create the sound waves, but on a shaker, this cone is replaced by a simple rod to repeatedly impart a small back and forth force onto the aircraft.

Title: Vibration testing of aircraft wing structure
Authors: Muhammad Farid Ahmad.
Keywords: DRNTU::Engineering::Aeronautical engineering::Aircraft
Issue Date: 2011
Abstract: The experimental study of structural vibration has always been the focus for researchers to understand and to control the many vibration phenomena encountered in practice. Methods of vibration testing include shaker testing and impact hammer testing. This project focuses on vibration analysis of the A4 aircraft wing structure by impact hammer testing. Prior to testing, initial preparation and measures were be taken to improve the accuracy of the experiment. Analysis was carried out on frequency response functions (FRFs) and mode shapes of the wing structure were determined.

But What does that have to do with modeling that driver to explore its possible areas of use ? Capt wiki😝


Unfortunately nobody cares about bass shakers unless their neighbor does and your forced to be ‘quiet’/polite or it’s for your kids gaming experience ?


please answer the question like GM always does even if he thinks it’s silly or outta the ‘norm’ ….

it’s heavy. It’s rediculous motor speced and it’s tight as my butthole @ Vas.. but stilll?

what can we stick it in? (and dont say my butthole 😆 please

This kind of driver does something no other drivers can. They sound powerful, tactile and physically overwhelming in a way that must be experienced to be believed. And even more so when it is combined with a high order QW designs with lots of acoustic positive feedback. This is a near perfect home theater driver for anyone that does not have neighbors close by. It is the Caterpillar D11 of HT bass (where most people are used to a Toyota Prius in comparison).

Burb box sub.

Designed to do one thing.

Burb at 40 to 50 hz.

just put it in a sealed or ported box.


can DSP the living jango out of it to feel better.

just a comp burb, or a rumble generator for home theatre.

12" would go in the same old 2 cubic feet probably.
maybe 3. dont think it matters.
just gonna burb.

probably the usual 6 grand these thing go for

BW: Ask the "car people" or even fire-off a mail to CP Audio and see what they say (maybe they have some magic BP-type recipe). I think it's down to what your application might be and how big a box you want. Seems like you could wring-out an "auto-horn" outta HR if you could deal with all the delay actively. If a different kind of pipe is interesting, try a (enormous) front-loaded horn, maybe. FWIW.
