RUNNING-IN PERIOD
Allow the speaker to play for at least 15-
20 hours. After this time the
performance is correct.
F3 = approximative lower frequency for vented
boxes in Hz. Often called F-3 dB point = the point
where the power is 50% lower.
Fb = Box resonant frequency
The speaker is installed in Vb1
playing into chamber Vb2 where the
port(s) are installed.
