    Sub help..

    I have a sub loaded with a dayton Titanic 15" driver which performs great. I thing of building a new sub with 2 12" drivers. The sub will be of a sealed design and fire downward, like the 15" I have already.
    One Titanic 15" driver:
    vas=7.79 cu/ft
    Qms=5.89
    Qes=.41
    Qts=.38
    XMax=20.5mm
    Fs=19.93 Hz

    Two Eminence Lab 12" drivers:
    Vas=4.4 cu/ft
    Qms=13.32
    Qes=0.39
    Qts=0.38
    XMax=13mm
    Fs=22 Hz

    Which would be a better performing system....Jon

    One of the Tempest-X or a couple Shiva-X drivers from Exodus Audio

      I take that to mean that the Tempest-X and Shiva-X drivers are more suitable than the Dayton or Eminence drivers?......Jon

        I'm not sure what you mean by the term "suitable".

        Compare the T/S parameters, in particular look at the Xmax numbers...
