Just wondering which two parameters you use to get the Le of a sub? Unless someone knows off hand the Le of a RE SX 15?

Why do you need the Le of a sub? And do you need Le at Fs? 1k?

If you can get ahold of the Kxm and Exm figures, the formula is:
Le(Voice Coil Inductance in mH) = Kxm * ω^(Exm - 1)

Where:
Kxm = Constant Reactive Motor Impedance
and
Exm = Exponent Reactive Motor Impedance

It may actually be easier to buy the sub and measure it.

Argh, that's Le = Kxm * OMEGA ^ (Exm - 1)

Well it was the only factor in bbp6 I could not input but it turned out I did not need much. You seem to have a very well knowledge of audio.. where have you been all this time lol. Trying to build a new box for my SX that won't belly flop like the old one. Running my street beater (35hz) and it does 145.7 on a tl.. Going to build an all out comp box but I need to find the resonant frequency of my car. Wish someone knew anything about VW Jettas on here.. Trying to break a 150 with a single 15" in a trunk car.. Not likely going to happen but its possible ..
