Couldnt you put the parimiters of the speaker inquestion in winisd or something like that and work from there?
I made an enclosed cab of about 100 liters and changed the volume by ear to suit what i wanted!I did it by filling it up slowley with A MATERIAL ..... LOL ok maybe not the best way to go but i do think i got what i wanted and yes they sound sweat! ofcourse subjective i know.... |

I guess you'll end up with a reflex cab, in which case choose your size and tune it. You could also go on to the EV site to see whether they still have a cab using that speaker. If you choose a folded horn cab which I think that speaker might take, then you'll have a wider choice of speaker. The speaker is an old one so it won't handle much power.

Yeah I thought maybe a reflex cab, or somthing like an HD15? As Tony said they are old and only 200 watt so I'm not expecting anything amazing but they sound quite nice and I thought I'd give them somthing to do other than collecting dust!

I did think about putting them in the W bins but was advised against it by somebody on here a while back. It was suggested that the cones were too light and they would end up wrecked.

The mounting hole and bolt circle will be different on the EV. Edited by _djk_ - 20 November 2007 at 10:36am |

Worth mentioning...the Eliminator w bin should be fitted with the EVM-15B ,which is the bass version of the EVM15L...both drivers look alike,but the response of the "b" version is lower. |

Hey big up to you ! And i hear you loud and clear....When i bought mine i had both in them L and B.... if you read the eliminator manual it also says 15B but when i look on the spec sheets of both drivers side by side they go as low as each other!!! Ok i maybe missing something ...am sure i am ! I mean to say the fs is the same!http://www.selfmadehifi.de/tsp/para_e.htm
Also the QTS of the ev15/L is lower which according to ROGERS explination page would give better base............
Again i am treading carfully here as i havent really got that much of a clue perhaps a chance for someone to enlighten me????
more time
