[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8849401, member: 689267"] So, the EBP for this driver is 62 and the Qts is 0.47 which means it falls somewhere in the middle. I’ve run stuffed and no stuffed damping configurations at .85 cubic ft. gross (Vb of .725) and it looks pretty poor. The response is pretty flat all the way to about 300Hz, but that’s the good part.
