Hi, after upgrading the midrange with the 2" voice coil, I realized that the low resolution 2 section seems to be downsized.
Has anyone ever tried an alternative or knows the hornresp data from the cashier to simulate an upgrade?
I thought of a 4 ohm woofer to take advantage of the power of the amplifier.
I tried with a B & C 15tbx100-4, and actually the sound improves as definition and pressure.
But it is a cone made at random, perhaps with a faital hp1030, or with another driver b & c there would be a better improvement ..
What do you recommend?
400w aes are few, certainly a woofer with more excursion of 4 ohms would easily do the double .. |

would not a 4" voice coil be better?

just like your post, bigger is not always better...

Excuse me if it's a language barrier on my behalf, but what do you mean by "but it is a cone made at random"?
When it comes to voice coils, bigger quite simply IS better. There is no reason it shouldn't be the case. |

the res2 15" section has to play up to 250hz doesn't it? high for a bandpass horn. many would say a driver with a smaller coil than 4" might fare better in that role.

Agreed, if I remember correctly a 3 inch coil is preferred over a 4 in Cubo kick bins for this reason.

Just fit the proper driver unless you want your speaker to sound like sh1t

originally they mount a cone with 4 "coil.
So why put a smaller coil?
With the b & c 15tbx100, you get a good sound. but as I said it was put there for proof .. maybe there are 100 other better ones.
The original fane is definitely an excellent component, but:
1 there is no 4 ohm version
2 to limit the power in only 400w, it is not the power, but the excursion, which in the horn becomes too much exceeded a certain power
3 it is true that if you increase the excursion you have to have more power in the magnetic group, otherwise it goes down the efficiency at the top.
4 I do not want to say that in the 90s f1 did not do a good project, but having passed several years have come out so many new drivers ..
5 the upgrade of the midrange helps to have greater margin in the use of the limiter, but the company I believe for commercial reasons does not want to release a better updated bass driver otherwise it would compete with the more expensive and higher series.
6 In 90% I do not recommend touching what sounds good, but having a couple of extra db at the bottom is the need for a club that is good enough to cover the track with the mids, but with a medium too low back , would need 2 db more, changing the final would have margin of break, using a cone with more power and impedance 4 ohms would have more power reserve and amplifier away from the clip.
