RE: Altec 416-8B Midwoofers: Recommended Subwoofers?

It's low mass for sure, I got a 0dB point at 160Hz and -3 at 74Hz in 3cu/ft. The 2.5mH L gives the response a built in low pass crossover. Parameters "as if made for a large low compression bass horn" haha

But with twice the box volume and tuned to 40Hz a vented system could give a -3 at 40Hz, with 3 times the volume, you get a small bump and -3 at 36Hz.

The right bass horn is where that one would be happy.
