⚠️ Engineering Notice for Builders

  • Limited linear excursion (Xmax: 2.0 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 0.85 a Butterworth (Qtc 0.707) box would be many times Vas. A box equal to Vas reaches Qtc 1.202; 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 Peerless TC6FC00-04?

A simple ported box is not recommended for Peerless TC6FC00-04: the textbook alignment (1.5 liters tuned to 161.5 Hz) needs a 11.5 cm port, and no nearby retune stays buildable without a bass hump. A sealed box, a passive radiator or a folded duct is the practical choice.

Can Peerless TC6FC00-04 be used in a sealed box?

Yes. In a sealed (acoustic suspension) enclosure of 0.19 liters with a Qtc of 1.202 (above Butterworth: Qtc cannot fall below Qts (0.85)), the system exhibits an F3 of 220.1 Hz.

What port dimensions should be used for Peerless TC6FC00-04 to avoid port chuffing?

A straight 5.0 cm port would need 11.5 cm of length, which does not fit a practical cabinet. Use a passive radiator or a folded/3D duct instead of a straight tube.
