Just as a heads-up and something to potentially look into. Upon a quick inspection of the D2 version of the AD2212 it appears that the moving mass parameter is incorrect. What would be mathematically correct with all other related parameters accounted for would be 346.8g apposed to 307g. Though I do believe this would also be incorrect when compared to the D4 variant that has a mathematically infallible 234g Mms figure. The deviation could likely be caused by one of three possibilities. Within the Vas calculation method chosen, the added mass used wasn't ideal to achieve realistic results, or the test box volume wasn't correct; assuming either method was used. Lastly, there may have not been a sufficient break-in period for the D2 driver when using the same added mass or net volume for the test box methods between the D4 and D2 variants. There may have been other factors, but these are the ones that come to mind first. Though I do have a question, are the inductance parameters listed indicating a 1khz Le, or 10khz Le?

What would you say this sub compares to?

Hi Hexibase, Did you perhaps explain more in deepth the Fs parameter in another video? I mean I've seen the video with a quick explanation of all TS params, but I was thinking more about Fs specifically. You say that it doesn't say how low a sub will go, but doesn't it say something useful? If it's the resonating frequency than one might assume that at that frequency a speaker built with such driver would have very good efficiency at that frequency is that correct? And then is it completely pointless to look at Fs or is there some rule of thumb that like going -10Hz from Fs is ok, but lower than that would be impractical or something like that?

Am I wrong....a smaller enclosure, less acoustic volume, gets you more under-damping.....and a larger volume will get you more LF extension at the expense of SPL?

ZYZZXX no other way around a smaller enclosure is over dampened, producing better transients but is horribly inefficient (less spl) while a larger enclosure will provide more spl but push it too far and you will loose all sense of sq and transients and end with muddy boomy sound that’s load but there’s no point cause it will sound like crap.
