12 π basshorn sub
First, we measured impedance and found Zmin to be 2.8Ω. So 16.7v is required for 100 watts, 23.7v for 200 watts, 33.5v for 400 watts, 47.3v for 800 watts and 66.9v for 1600 watts.

Next, we measured output at 28.3v. Since we measured 10 meters away, the values correspond to 2.83v/1M.
The blue line is SPL, and the violet line shows distortion. Since measurement was taken at 10 meters, add 20dB to find SPL at 1 meter. With 100 watts input, the 10 meter measurement works out the same as 1 watt input measured at a distance of 1 meter.

From this, we perform an inverse FFT to obtain impulse and step response:

Thought I might add a version definition also. The t48 can be configured with two chamber sizes. The model tested is the large chamber version, which improves response below 40hz. The smaller chamber improves response above 40 hz., up to a couple of db across the board, at the expense of response below 40hz.
