Guess How Big My Speakers Are

If you read any of my threads on here or looked at my virtual system you probably already know the answer to this question, but for those who have not, try this as a thought exercise. Given this plot alone how big a speaker do you think this is?

Frequency response plot showint extension to 20 Hz

 

Hints:

  • 2’ from sides, 1.5’ from rear
  • Ported
  • Not horns
  • No EQ applied. This is the natural in room response using short sine sweeps.
  • For a living room this is a well treated room with GIK soffit traps, bass traps and diffusion panels strategically placed.

I’ll reveal my answer if we get 5 guesses or more. :)

You may be a vampire, but the HSU VT15t is currently 100% on HT duty. :) I had it set up for stereo before. Back then I had no processor, used an Oppo BluRay player as my processor and ran everything through a Parasound 7.1 preamp.

Now I have a processor and a 2 channel integrated and things got a lot more complicated.

Your speakers and $10.00 will get you 2 Whoppers, an order of fries, and a medium drink at Burger King.

Thanks for your insight, @Rokral - Let us know when you get the gist of the thread.  Give it time and breathe, it will come to you.

Gist means meaning, or central point, by the way.

Unlike the people who can afford those speakers and a house to put them in, I actually work for a living.
