To say I'm new to modifying speakers would be generous. But, $119 will buy a new Motion 10 (get them while it lasts!), which contains the components for a nice center channel speaker which could match the rest of my ML setup. I've been convinced to try to build my own. However, I've no idea where to begin gathering and/or calculating the various parameters needed for such a project. Can anyone point me to a source for putting together the necessary specs to begin my ported cabinet design project?
I know I need Equivalent Volume (Vas), Free Air Resonance (Fs), and Total Q (Qts), among other measured and/or derived values. I won't bore everyone by trying to list them all, but would appreciate any leads. I think I can use the online tools to run the calculations once I get the values, but I'm not sure where to start. ML doesn't seem to post such things, though I didn't much think they would.
Can anyone here give some experienced-based encouragement and pointers?
Many thanks.
