I am working on a 3-way system with 2 enclosures. The LF enclosure is basically a pair of 12"ers in a 3.76cuFt box, with each driver in its own 1.88cuFt area and a vent of it's own. I was hoping to get this to work from 30Hz to 300Hz.
The HF enclosure is a baffle-less MTM comprising two Vifa P13's and a Vifa XT25. They operate 300z upwards I got that part pretty well settled. The problem I have is with the bass unit.
I initially had two PPI Pro12's as the Bass units. However regardless of what PPI says that the Pro12's liked small enclosures, .... they don't! The output at 100Hz is maddening.
Each driver is in 1.88cuFT and tuned to 37.4Hz.
Now I am looking at other drivers that give me a more flat response, heck even exaggerated response below 60Hz is acceptable to take care of the bafflestep. I WinISD'd 3 drivers all in the same price rage of $150 per driver or so.
1) THe PPI Pro12
2) Peerless XLS12
3) Dayton Titanic Mk.III (12")
and got the following results... which one would you guys choose for the given application? Should I consider other 12"ers in this application with the enclosure around 1.9 to 3cuFt? In the same price range?
I always prefer deep bass ... My vents are more or less fixed $" by 10"...
