Hey, good to know. Any idea what the box dimensions were? At least roughly. Thanks.
Okay, point taken about the power.
Like you and many others have said, these Boston Acoustics drivers are pretty good. I tried them in old sonodyne speaker boxes and they sounded very good. I listened to Hariprasad Chaurasia, shiv Kumar Sharma, Amjad Ali Khan, muddy waters and BB king. They sounded great. I was using a HT receiver. I am sure a class A amp will be better.
The only question now is which one to try. I will have to decide.
Ok.. I think I will only have to finish the project that I started, since nobody else is willing to take it off my hands on as is basis. So, to proceed further properly, I need help with two things:
1) Sourcing another pair of Boston HQ-48414 (8 ohm round version) as my previous pair got damaged in the process (no whizzer cones & punctured cone fixed with fevicol).
2) Design a hit-and-trial baffle step correction circuit for these since nobody seems to have the T/S parameters (either printed or measured) for these.
Anyone?
Back to the driver, as Shri Cranky mentioned its best in a sealed box. Philips HiQ boxes were about 18 liters. From what I recall dimensions were 12x9x15 or thereabout.
