Gold Member Username: Mikechec9Http://www.cardomain.c... Post Number: 2106 Registered: May-05 | BL=mass/current. a BL >30 typically means tight, controlled/accurate cone movement and low Qts (which has nothing to do with cone size, by the way). that is, a high BL HELPS to result in good transient response. but you can also have too great a BL known as an "overmotored" sub. a driver with a Bl of <20 will generally be boomier and not as controlled. one spec means very little without the others taken into consideration, however. http://editweb.iglou.com/eminence/eminence/pages/params02/params.htm |

For an SPL sub, BL isn't as important since a high BL indicates an overdamped sub, and that decreases efficiency, so it decreases output and sensitivity. |
