Thread for Drivers with Semi Inductance

Parts Express makes the ZMA files available for the Dayton drivers on their website, so you could determine them yourself....

The only published impedance data I could find was from the BC website which only had impedance for 20Hz and above, so an assumption has to be made for Re'.

Using rule of thumb (setting Re' = Re*1.1) and removing Re' from the least squares list, a good fit is obtained with the published impedance data for both 4 ohm and 8 ohm versions.
Values from the BC datasheets were used for Sd and VAS.

Attached are exported Semi-Le datasheets and Hornresp driver files for both.

i'm currently working on a tapped horn using this driver and this helps me greatly, thanks!
