⚠️ Engineering Notice for Builders

  • Large enclosure volume (144.0 L) requires extensive internal matrix bracing to prevent panel resonance.
  • Limited linear excursion (Xmax: 3.5 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 0.65 a Butterworth (Qtc 0.707) box would be many times Vas. A box equal to Vas reaches Qtc 0.919; 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 Lii Audio F-15?

Load Forge's calculated alignment puts Lii Audio F-15 in a 144.0 liter vented enclosure tuned to 25.5 Hz, reaching an F3 cutoff of approximately 35.5 Hz.

Can Lii Audio F-15 be used in a sealed box?

Yes. In a sealed (acoustic suspension) enclosure of 180.0 liters with a Qtc of 0.919 (above Butterworth), the system exhibits an F3 of 35.9 Hz.

What port dimensions should be used for Lii Audio F-15 to avoid port chuffing?

Sized from cone displacement (Sd × Xmax), a minimum port diameter of 6.8 cm with a length of 6.8 cm is suggested; check the port air velocity at your drive level in the Load Forge Studio.
