I've tried in vain to find the specs for the SP1070 variant.

Has anyone measured the T/S parameters for these drivers? As I've obtained 4 such drivers, I'm wondering if they are suitable for a 100lt overall bandpass design, like the 107.

The SP1070 was used in the 17 litre Celeste IV/III/II and has a pretty weedy motor, so I'd expect the driver to get "lost" in any volume greater than 20 litre.

That seems just about right for what I'd like to experiment.

Two 20lt chambers for the drivers, 30-40lt front chamber and the rest allocated to a "shelf port" firing upwards.

Perhaps it's the most appropriate example of a driver to actually complete the T/S parameter measurement.

And - as I've read here - despite calculations, it takes experimentation to fine tune the balance between volumes, stuffing and crossover compensation.
