Comparable 6.5" Drivers
Drivers with similar piston area, resonance and Qts — useful alternatives when the Peerless P830875 does not fit your target box volume or tuning. Each entry links to its full enclosure design and Thiele/Small parameters.
⚠️ Engineering Notice for Builders
- The textbook alignment (18.7 L at 47.0 Hz) would need a 49.8 cm port; the recommendation is retuned to 18.7 L at 49.4 Hz so the port can be built.
- 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the recommended ported (bass reflex) box volume for Peerless P830875?
Load Forge's calculated alignment puts Peerless P830875 in a 18.7 liter vented enclosure tuned to 49.4 Hz, reaching an F3 cutoff of approximately 46.8 Hz.
Can Peerless P830875 be used in a sealed box?
Yes. In a sealed (acoustic suspension) enclosure of 8.1 liters with a Qtc of 0.707 (Butterworth), the system exhibits an F3 of 85.4 Hz.
What port dimensions should be used for Peerless P830875 to avoid port chuffing?
Xmax is not published for Peerless P830875, so the port is an empirical estimate: a 10.0 cm diameter with a length of 44.4 cm (area at least 12 in² per ft³ of net volume). Check the air velocity at your power level in Load Forge Studio.
