OK, just one more question.
I am building a set of bass modules, preferably a sealed box with a 10" driver, to complement and act as stands for Joe D'Appolito designed Aria 5A's. These are MTM's with Focal 5K4211's and an Accuton C2-12 tweeter.
Driver needs to be 8 ohms, handle 150 watts or more. I'll be4 making these either fully active, or an active crossover to split between the bass module and MTM, using ORca's originnal XO for the MTM portion. So I think sensitivity isn't that important as it can be balanced in the active XO (Aria's are 90dB/1W/1m themselves).
I WAS planning on using the Stryke SB10, but saw some comments by Mark Seaton about the SB12 implying its distortion levels and linearity might not be up to the quality of my other drivers, and didn't knnow if this extended to the SB10.
My priorities here are for this bass unit to be as accurate as possible and extend flat to 30Hz. These primary purpose here is to make the main L and R speaker as perfect as possible in 2 channel music mode and extend the 60Hz bottom end of the MTM,. I will be adding a subwoofer for HT use. I will also be building a similar bass unit for the center channel to keep my L,C and R equivalent.
Thoughts?
Thanks very much.
