VRC - is that net (volume minus driver displacement) or gross? In other words does the program assume a rule-of-thimb driver displacement volume based on Sd?

Thanks

That's net. You must enter the actual throat chamber volume. This is usually the volume between the cone and the mounting plate for cone-driven horns. Also include the volume made from the cross-section area of the mounting plate and its thickness, although most times this is small enough it doesn't matter much.

Of course, you're right Mike. Jeez, I don't know how I misread that. But the volume entered should still be NET actual volume, and the displacement from stuff inside the chamber (like the driver itself) should be removed.
