    Loudspeaker impulse response optimization

    I'm interested in what factors affect the impulse response of a loudspeaker driver, specifically the relationship between the factors.

    If we are interested in optimizing the impulse response of the loudspeaker system, could we simplify the problem by parameterizing the system and separating the rear chamber optimization from the driver design optimization or are the parts interdependent?

    ie could the best rear chamber design be achieved without regard to the electro-mechanical parameters of the driver (assume driver is optimized)? could the best driver design (impulse response) be achieved without regard to the modal behavior of the enclosure (assume enclosure is optimized)?

    DCX2496 and crossover optimization
    by Saurav
    This is mostly a 'thinking out loud' post. I'm looking for errors in my thought process / logic.

    OK, so with a passive crossover, you don't end up with textbook electrical filter responses because of driver impedance, driver response rolloff, and various issues. Once you take those into...

    Numerical Solving Techniques for Optimum Crossover Design
    by thadman
    I've been contemplating an optimum method to achieve synergy between drivers in a loudspeaker. We obviously need crossovers to transition between drivers, but what techniques can we use to optimize the crossover filter so that radiated energy is as uniform as possible throughout the crossover region...

    Measuring/estimating driver acoustic center offsets
    by Saurav
    I saw an online article recently where someone's procedure for estimating the acoustic center offset between his drivers was to measure the speaker, model the XO, then increment driver offset in the model until the predicted result matched the measured result. I was wondering if there was a different...

    B&W and Jaguar - More details
    by greggz
    The other thread had kind of degenerated so I thought I would start a new one. :roll:

    Here are greater details about the stereo B&W did for the Jag concept car (including that the tweeters are the new diamond dome!)
