Measuring Vas?

[ PiSpeakers Forum ] [ Help ]

I'd like to build a pair of Pi-aligned cabinets for my newly-acquired pair of Goodmans Axiom 201 12" extended-range drivers.

As a first step (and also just as a learning exercise), I'd like to measure the T-S parameters of my particular pair of 201's.

I have all of the information I need to get started except:

How should I calculate a reasonable volume for the closed box I will use to measure Vas?

The Readme.txt file contained in PiAlign.zip says, "The test box should be 0.5 - 2.0 of the expected Vad, which can be
approximated using the ratio method described above."

I may be misreading the Readme.txt document somehow-- because I can't spot the ratio method for approximating the expected Vad. Can you help me out?

Thanks very much,

-uW
