What you can say about lowbass and midbass perfomance for high end loudspeakers ?


i listen Egglestonworks Viginty  and find out the play increadable bass performance , especially punch bass
The company claim the two 10" woofer working as  passive sub with cross point 100Hz, and 2  6" midwoofer is
responsible for midbass get very good punch bass,  They say to produce good bass the need to split bass, becouse  
low base woofers get big moving mass cone , and work poor for punch work (too heavy )  Do anybody agree?
But this issue can be find in big speakers with 10"-12"woofer, For small floorstander is not applicable

The Omega Pro 15A is an excellent woofer, and as you point out its moving mass is not very high.

I’d like to use this woofer as an example to illustrate something about good prosound woofers that most audiophiles are unaware of.

Everybody knows that big cones are slow, right? Well in some cases that’s true, but not in this one. The specifics matter.

The Omega Pro 15A is arguably faster than a good 5" midwoofer, like the ScanSpeak Revelator! I’m not talking about top end extension - I’m talking about raw power-to-weight ratio ("weight" in this case being the moving mass of the cone).

We can use the formula BL^2/Re to see how much force a woofer’s motor applies to the cone for a given power input.

And we can divide that by the moving mass to get the power-to-weight ratio.

If we make this calculation, we find that the Omega Pro 15A’s power-to-weight ratio is about 30% higher than that of the 5" ScanSpeak revelator!

But that’s not the end of the story.

The Omega 15A also moves almost SEVEN TIMES as much air as the little ScanSpeak. This translates into about 16 dB more displacement-limited headroom (each doubling of displacement = +6 dB).

So the next time someone says that XYZ speaker can’t possibly be "fast" because it uses a big prosound woofer, don’t be so sure. That big prosound woofer may actually have a better power-to-weight ratio than the cute little midwoofer in your favorite mini-monitor.

I agree,,  except one thing, like i say before,  To get  low  bass like 
30 -40 Hz using Omega Pro 15" woofer you need box very  big 5-6 
Cubic Feet . You can listen nice bass with smaller enclosure , but
never get really low bass 
erik,

IOW, I agree with the approach, but the explanation is an urban legend which hides a series of more complicated issues.


Wait! Are you saying the explanations audiophiles often believe on intuition are often inaccurate?

Say it ain't so ;-)

Very true!! High efficiency + deep bass = HUGE box!

In my opinion one possible solution is to design the system with subwoofers in mind from the outset. Only about one cubic foot would be needed for the Omega 15 (and a protective high-pass filter would be optional unless you want to go north of about 118 dB). You could then tailor your subwoofer purchase to your budget and room and SPL needs.

I start  my discussion with my feedback Egglestone work.
They do split bass job and achieve nice midbass -punch bass. 
Low bass also very good except one small issue. not enough control
bass is boomy in low octave . Why ?  My explanation is - they use
110 Hz  crossover point, to get this , they need to use a very huge
 coil  about 15 mh.  or more .  this coil get big resistance 0.5-0.8 ohm
100 times more them expensive speakers wire. The active low woofer
Module (subwoofer) is the good idea, But some company in marketing
purposes don t want to do this.
