CV Vega 124 query

[Moondog55]

I've never seen a waterfall plot for these drivers but I have them sitting there and I'm wondering if I can use them as the bass driver in a 3-Way set crossing over as high as 300/400 Hz.
I've never used them above 120Hz.
Any feedback/information/advice etc: would be appreciated

I found nothing except a locked CV forum that used profanity to tell me I couldn't.

I have found nothing at all myself.
I was going to re-use them with the HT but I have the bigger CV154 for that now

If this is a 12", the chances are it isn't going to be troublesome used up to 400Hz.. assuming you get it properly crossed and EQed into the system.

It’s a 12” car subwoofer. It’s rated at 94 dB which I suspect is generous. Hard to say whether you could use this in a 3 way. They are recommended for a 2 to 2.5 ft^3, port tuning of 35hz.

Waiting on a response from CV head office. I did have the data somewhere once.
Added a request for data on the bigger 154 too but I only have one of those.
Looking at some old sales pages the usable range is given as 25 to 500 so they may be OK, in the same way that the old B-139 was "OK"
Actually apart from Vas the specs for this driver and that old B-139 aren't too far apart; X-Max and power handling aside that is.

Thanx GM I had actually forgotten that I'd asked that question.
I'll make sure I back-up this new computer properly
It is the scenario I am thinking of implementing
