I've been planning to start either a sealed or ported build with a Tempest-X very soon (I was leaning towards ported but having trouble making up my mind), when I ran across this new guy for only $125. They say it's for IB or Dipole use, but it seems to model nicely in a smaller sealed box, too. Here are the T/S parameters:
# Fs: 19 Hz
# Le: 1.6mH
# Re: 6.1 Ohms (Single 8 Ohm VC)
# Qms: 3.27
# Qes: .84
# Qts: 0.67
# Mms: 271g
# Cms: 0.23 mm/N
# Vas: 232L
# Sd: 830 cm^2
# Vd: 3.65L
# BL: 15
# X-max: 22mm
# X-mech: 29mm
# Pmax: 600W
# 85dB/1W/1m
I tried starting this thread on another forum, but couldn't generate much interest. I realize I'm comparing apples with oranges, but I was figuring I could put two of these in a sealed box for not a lot more money than one Tempest-X and push more air.
I'm just a newbie looking for feedback because I'm probably missing something. And I wouldn't mind hearing opinions on whether the Tempest-X would be better suited to a sealed or ported build. I guess what I really need is to settle on something and get started!
Thanks for any help you can give me.
