⚠️ Engineering Notice for Builders

  • The textbook alignment (1.5 L at 120.7 Hz) would need a 23.4 cm port; the recommendation is retuned to 3.0 L at 120.7 Hz so the port can be built.
  • Limited linear excursion (Xmax: 1.15 mm); set a high-pass subsonic filter at 25–30 Hz when driven with high power.

Sealed (Acoustic Suspension) — compromise

SUITS INFINITE / OPEN BAFFLE

With Qts 1.62 a Butterworth (Qtc 0.707) box would be many times Vas. A box equal to Vas reaches Qtc 2.291; for a flat response this driver is better used on an infinite (IB) or open baffle.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the recommended ported (bass reflex) box volume for Bomber 4″ BBR TOP 120 W RMS 4 OHMS?

Load Forge's calculated alignment puts Bomber 4″ BBR TOP 120 W RMS 4 OHMS in a 3.0 liter vented enclosure tuned to 120.7 Hz, reaching an F3 cutoff of approximately 120.9 Hz.

Can Bomber 4″ BBR TOP 120 W RMS 4 OHMS be used in a sealed box?

Yes. In a sealed (acoustic suspension) enclosure of 0.7 liters with a Qtc of 2.291 (above Butterworth: Qtc cannot fall below Qts (1.62)), the system exhibits an F3 of 170.5 Hz.

What port dimensions should be used for Bomber 4″ BBR TOP 120 W RMS 4 OHMS to avoid port chuffing?

Sized from cone displacement (Sd × Xmax), a minimum port diameter of 5.0 cm with a length of 9.9 cm is suggested; check the port air velocity at your drive level in the Load Forge Studio.
