Single driver full range speakers
Hi,
I am a simple home hobbiest. I've built an great sounding full range single speaker set (so no cross-over,, and that's the point. I don't want a x-over).
But of course it lacks terribly in bass. Is it possible (is it commonly done?) to add a woofer into the cabinet with no cross-over (again, simple straight wire to amp). Would it require wiring in parallel or series?
Currently each speaker has one TangBand W8-1808 full range 8" driver and sounds very good.
Thanks in advance, I really would like to know if this is possible (safe?) to do.
Rob

So I took some time and looked up the thieves small parameters for your driver. https://www.parts-express.com/Tang-Band-W8-1808-8-Neodymium-Full-Range-Driver-264-894?quantity=1 Based on those values the efficiency bandwidth product comes our to 69.696969697 http://www.calculatoredge.com/new/bandwidth.htm So that pretty much freedom of choice between a sealed or ported enclosure. There are a lot of tricks to come up with the Qts and -3db point you're looking (hoping) for. I didn't see your design specs so if this helps, good for you. If it isn't helpful, my apologies and best wishes best wishes! |
My neighbour runs wide-bands over Ripol subs. Originally he had the same Tang-Bands. They are very nice! Good choice. He moved on to Lii Songs. And then, as in this picture to Lowthers. Now he has EMSpeaker electromagnets. I always loved the Tang Bands myself though. PS: seems no pictures allowed here that are not url-based. Anyway, can provide more info somehow separately if wanted. |
