After reading this thread (here and the other site) I decided to build a 3 cu ft econowave from the specs on PE Tech Talk Forum. The LF's will be covered using an Eminence Kappalite 3012LF Neo 12" Driver coupled with a B&C DE250-8 1" Polyimide Compression Driver in a QSC waveguide (PL-000446-GP).
While playing with UniBox, I plugged in the parameters from Exodus Audio's 15" passive radiator (EX-PR15) and the results for the low end look very good (not that I need it with the Maelstrom-X sub (Exodus Audio), but the lower I can x-over w/ my Onkyo 805 the better). I do not know much about speaker design, I am more of a copier of other peoples plans (thanks to you, penngray and zilch for the inspiration ;x( ). However, I have not seen a build of an econowave using a PR. The excursion will pass that of the driver at 450 watts, but I do not forsee that being a problem - but I could be wrong.
Is this a feasible plan of attack? Any feedback greatly appreciated. I will now stop crapping on your thread!!!!
Attached are the plots comparing sealed to PR.
