Hey guys! I stumbled upon the Fane 12-250TC full range drivers and wanted to make a good old bass-reflex enclosure for them.

I also know I want a “boombox alignment” so I don’t have to use an equalizer as much. A good bump from 30/40 up up to 150Hz is wanted.

Tuning frequency will be 45Hz.

  • With 155L: 45Hz has +2dB, highest is 60Hz at +3.5dB and f3 is at 36,5Hz.

  • With 220-230L: 45Hz sits at +4.5dB, 50Hz even at +5dB, and f3 is still 36Hz. That is pretty much +2.5dB down low across the board.

Here’s a WinISD-screenshot for visualization

Will the +2-3db down low be noticeable?

    I think that the smaller enclosure will have more of an old school Boombox sound if that’s what you’re looking for. But even that might be tuned too low too boost '90s music much
