Sealed (Acoustic Suspension) — compromise

SUITS INFINITE / OPEN BAFFLE

With Qts 0.7 a Butterworth (Qtc 0.707) box would be many times Vas. A box equal to Vas reaches Qtc 0.99; 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 PRV Audio 69FR250-4 6"x 9" Full-Range Speaker 4 Ohm?

Load Forge's calculated alignment puts PRV Audio 69FR250-4 6"x 9" Full-Range Speaker 4 Ohm in a 8.2 liter vented enclosure tuned to 68.9 Hz, reaching an F3 cutoff of approximately 116.1 Hz.

Can PRV Audio 69FR250-4 6"x 9" Full-Range Speaker 4 Ohm be used in a sealed box?

Yes. In a sealed (acoustic suspension) enclosure of 10.2 liters with a Qtc of 0.99 (above Butterworth), the system exhibits an F3 of 110.0 Hz.

What port dimensions should be used for PRV Audio 69FR250-4 6"x 9" Full-Range Speaker 4 Ohm to avoid port chuffing?

Sized from cone displacement (Sd × Xmax), a minimum port diameter of 5.0 cm with a length of 11.5 cm is suggested; check the port air velocity at your drive level in the Load Forge Studio.
