    WinISD ( www.linearteam.org ), which you should learn to use, says to put it in a 2 cf box with a 3"d x 7" long vent.

    I wouldn't consider ANY woofer with 2mm of Xmax to be useful as a sub, though. Heck, I wouldn't even consider 2mm of Xmax to be useful as a woofer.

    You'd be further off to use a 6.5" Dayton Classic in a .5 cf vented box.

      This will go in a smaller enclosure and kill the goldwood in every respect.

      It's a little more money, but worth it, and there are many people on this forum who have had great results with it.

      Never try to teach a pig to sing.
      Its a complete waste of time, and it just annoys the pig !.

          I don't know about that, perhaps someone else cen tell you, but if you use the search function on this forum and do a little homework, you will find enough info on the Dayton to get you started and people will help you if you have any problems.

            Sorry, but I was being attacked by my 3 year old son when I read the beginning of this thread, and I just realized that you already have the Goldwood.
            Well I hate to be a "Party Pooper", but as has been said, 2mm of Xmax is no good for sub duty,and the Fs.50 Hz is just not low enough to be of any use.
            Sorry .

              www.linearteam.org has an online version. AFAIK, that's the best a Mac can do. Sorry.

                  Are you asking about WinISD? If so read the help file on how to enter data for a new driver. There's a recommended procedure for entering that data that will help.
