FAQ about the Peerless SDS-P830878 Passive Radiator
What are some ideal applications for this passive radiator?
The SDS-P830878 is perfect for:
- Compact subwoofer systems.
- Portable Bluetooth speakers.
- Bookshelf speakers needing deeper bass in a small enclosure.
- High-end custom DIY audio projects.
How do I calculate the optimal tuning frequency for my system?
To calculate the tuning frequency, consider:
- Active Driver Parameters: Check the Thiele/Small parameters of your active driver (Fs, Vas, Qts).
- Enclosure Volume: Determine the internal volume of your enclosure.
- Radiator Mass: Adjust the SDS-P830878’s mass to achieve a resonant frequency slightly below the active driver’s Fs for smoother low-frequency roll-off.
Speaker design software (e.g., WinISD) is highly recommended for precise calculations.
