I never said it wasn't going to be a great sub. Fs is much lower...

Fs won't play that big a part in the sub bass game either

So a sub with a 45 hz fs will play 20 hz just like a sub with a 30 hz fs?

In an anechoic environment, no, in an enclosure is a different story.

Do you listen to your music in an anechoic room?

Do you think he knows what a anechoic room is? :)

And the answer is no :P

You would be surprised what Sean knows.

Who do you think helps test and design subs with Jake?

Points. That guy.

In an enclosure, same story. A sub with a 45 hz Fs in a box tuned to 20 hz and playing 20 hz will sound like ass across the board. It will play it sure, but the frequency response will just be a gradual taper down to the playing frequency. If it were say, a 40 hz tune box, it would be relatively flat response till below tuning, where it would fall off quickly. There is a reason home theater drivers have a 15-20 hz Fs and similar tuning. Playing a full octave below Fs just won't have authority.

Would it blow your mind if I had one? :ohnoes9:

Apples to oranges ;)

No need to be a smart ass, I needed to clarify that looking at Fs alone should never rule out a woofer.

D4 specs with a very short break-in period :

Re : 7.00 ohms

Fs : 34.61 Hz

Qes : 0.57

Qms : 4.45

Qts : 0.51

Le : 5.05 mH

Vas : 17.39 L

BL : 29.23 NA

Mms : 324 g

Cms : 65.1 uM/N

SPL : 82.7 dB 1w/1m

Xmax : 19.0mm one-way

Bl^2/Re : 122

With break-in the Fs and Qts will drop a bit as well.

D2 specs with a very short break-in period :

Re : 3.94 ohms

Fs : 34.62 Hz

Qes : 0.52

Qms : 4.34

Qts : 0.46

Le : 3.57 mH

Vas : 17.16 L

BL : 23.28 NA

Mms : 328.7 g

Cms : 64.27 uM/N

SPL : 83.11 dB 1w/1m

Xmax : 19.0mm one-way

Bl^2/Re : 138

IB install with one of these would be mighty interesting
