INFINITE BAFFLE EXAMPLE HIGH-PASS SET @ 30Hz

By removing low frequency signal which the woofer cannot produce, the woofer can play its capable range louder The first example is an infinite baffle situation. The left Graph displays the frequency response of

a 12 inch woofer in an infinite baffle application without the high-pass filter,

with the filter and with the filter and the INTELLi Q set to +3dB. As you can see with +3dB of boost and the high-pass filter set to 30Hz, the woofer has more output down to 25Hz and less overall excursion when compared to the non-high-pass response. Maxi- mum physical excursion capability of the woofer is 15mm.

SEALED EXAMPLE HIGH-PASS SET @ 20Hz

This sealed example is the same 12 inch woofer in the recommended sealed enclosure. Up to 6 dB of boost is capable at 20 Hz was used. With +6dB of boost, the woofer has more output down to 15 Hz.
