Re: Coaxial Wedge Collaboration



 

Not sure how you figure that, Radian doesn't even rate that high, only 96db/w, and I've always liked the sound of the Radian compression drivers.

 

The 12'' section does not have very much excursion, Xmax=0.113''.

 

Crunching a fairly optimium vented alignment shows decent tuning, but the driver is mechanically limited starting at 168hz or so, and by 80hz is 8db limited.  If using a vented design, I'd certainly want to use a hp filter around 100hz and not run kick or bass through it.

 

It looks better in a small sealed cabinet with a much gentler low end roll off(and better impulse response, and some back pressure offering some over excursion protection) and use it for vocals above baritones.

 

Best regards,
