Hi Bill,how deep and what expansion horn? what kind of highpass? Here's a similar Eminence 6.5" of mine with 30oz magnet, slightly lower qtc bare then on a short JBL waveguide with 1:1 throat. There's no "Gain" above a point of ~1K5 - just on the low end (which is helpful). When the response is made flat on the low end with just a cap, it seems to do well, has a sharp low end cutoff and distortion is low at 500Hz - I don't think its as sensitive a say a Klipsch style paging driver on long exponential horn setup. (?)
497Hz ~ 1 watt sine overtones (indoors)
630SS bare driver - interestingly, H2 is lower without the waveguide
630SS plus JBL waveguide
