Hi!

I have two old Zomax P1565 and woundering if these are usable in the HD15 horn ?

TS parameters

Fs = 34,6 Hz
Qt = 0,41
Qm = 9,87
Qe = 0,43
Vas = 340 ltrs.
Re = 6,5 ohms
SPL = 99 db

Or should i just thow them away and get a pair of Kappa 15 ?

Probably be OK in a suitable reflex box, not the HD which needs a specialist driver to work properly.

If you have some HDs built then give it a try and see how it sounds, if you haven't got any HDs and want to use to Zomax for something then id agree with Tony, a reflex is probably more likely to sound ok and would be a safer bet.  It may sound good in a HD though, its hard to say without trying it, TS parameters and simulations dont tell the whole story.
