⚠️ Engineering Notice for Builders

  • Xmax is not published, so the port size is an empirical estimate (area ≥ 12 in² per ft³ of net volume, minimum by driver size), not a displacement calculation. Check air velocity in Load Forge Studio.

Sealed (Acoustic Suspension) — compromise

SUITS INFINITE / OPEN BAFFLE

With Qts 0.8 a Butterworth (Qtc 0.707) box would be many times Vas. A box equal to Vas reaches Qtc 1.131; 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 Jensen P 10/100 BB?

Load Forge's calculated alignment puts Jensen P 10/100 BB in a 11.3 liter vented enclosure tuned to 95.3 Hz, reaching an F3 cutoff of approximately 135.0 Hz.

Can Jensen P 10/100 BB be used in a sealed box?

Yes. In a sealed (acoustic suspension) enclosure of 14.1 liters with a Qtc of 1.131 (above Butterworth: Qtc cannot fall below Qts (0.80)), the system exhibits an F3 of 126.1 Hz.

What port dimensions should be used for Jensen P 10/100 BB to avoid port chuffing?

Xmax is not published for Jensen P 10/100 BB, so the port is an empirical estimate: a 7.5 cm diameter with a length of 7.5 cm (area at least 12 in² per ft³ of net volume). Check the air velocity at your power level in Load Forge Studio.
