    My reading comprehension works just fine. Polk may not offer up their T/S parameters willing, but some companies do. I don't see the point in harassing someone that's just trying to find out. It's worth a shot to ask. It was a simple question with blown out answers. That is all.

    Prince, you are dead on. I bought them off that guy because of my knowledge of them in the past, yet the parameters are a bit different than the car ones. I do have the parameters for the dB12, but not this driver. I picked them up directly from the guy since I am local, but he doesn't plan on testing them any time soon. I'm probably going to rent the woofer tester, somebody else on ebay rents it for $20 a week. I have no need to purchase it completely considering I have parameters for every other woofer in my house. Those recommendations are a bit too broad for my taste, especially since I need to accommodate for the transfer function of my car. I'm hoping I can build a sealed box accordingly and save some space, but I can't build anything until I know proper parameters to get a proper f3 to match. Has nothing to do with whether the woofer is meant for home or car, specs are specs regardless of what the woofer was "intended for" per manufacturer. Yes, I fully understand I will not get the correct specs from anybody on this website. Now who is going to read only half this response and give their own "witty" yet uneducated response?

    I don't think anyone's stuck on reading just a portion of your post, you just need to understand that the specific driver you own was never intended for individual sale.

    As for your DB subwoofers, they are available for individual sale thus you'll find the T/S parameters online/etc. Same goes for drivers sold by other companies. Same can be said about drivers that are not sold by themselves, they won't include the T/S parameters you're looking for.

    Wow, I was a bit redundant there. Don't mind me, I'm tired.

    South Orange county...San Diego is only 80 miles away, and 60 away from my work. Why?
