In Reply to: Why would you assume no EQ for a 15" dipole bass driver? posted by Richard BassNut Greene on February 3, 2007 at 13:38:32:
....
This also assumes a 'practicle' F3
Talking a woofer not a 'sub'
For F3 ~ Fs
needed baffle diameter ~ 360 feet / (Qts * Fs)
For instance:
with a 4' baffle and a driver with Qts~2 and Fs~50Hz
you're flat down to 50Hz sans EQ

- You suggest a 16 square foot baffle and a 2.0 Qts. driver ... so would still need another speaker for bass below 50Hz? - Richard BassNut Greene 14:37:14 02/03/07 (8)

- Let's consider a typical 20 x 15 x 8 room -- maybe you may be somewhat partially right about monopoles below 50Hz.! - Richard BassNut Greene 09:41:08 02/07/07 (0)
