New Open Baffles (Gift for friends )

[Moondog55]

Hi Simon
Fs of the 10 is ~32Hz & Qts of ~0.77

Fs of the 12 is ~30 & Qts of ~1.46

So I think the combination of both drivers will work quite well, given floor reflections.

Baffle width would be again 450mm, side wings o rU frame of about 300mm

Hehe, sounds like good fun.

Those are very high Qts figures. And you're mating them to large baffles. You must get good extension naturally. My speakers (30cm + 15cm wings), OTOH, rely on T-bass to bring up the 40hz area.

10 + 12 sounds very interesting...

Yeah but don't expect pictures or comments for a while, if we buy this new place it will take quite a few months to get over the move and
"New mortgage syndrome" and to get the funds together to build a new "Man-cave"

This took a year

My friends took delivery of these a while ago, but it was only on Xmas day when we went for lunch that the speakers were hooked up and listened to.

Good clean bass and finally midrange sounded like it should, too loud and they loose definition as power handling is limited, but in this instance the amp runs out of steam before the speakers.

I am reasonably happy with these, SWMBO concurs, but the XO took a lot of work to tame the midrange ( try and try again guess work and listening ) the damping blanket behind the drivers really is needed in this room.
Lounge room is 8 * 12 Meters and new owners needed the speakers along the wide wall, tall vaulted ceiling 5.5 meters tall
