GPA 416-8C or 515-C in ported box?

[Barossi]

Hi,
i am thinking about building a ported box with either the actual GPA 416-8C
http://www.greatplainsaudio.com/downloads/416_8C.pdf

or the actual GPA 515-C
http://www.greatplainsaudio.com/downloads/515_C.pdf

I will use them in a 2-way setup with x-over @~700Hz.

Does anyone have some experiences with those new woofers?
How reliable are the T/S parameters?


Kind Regards
Barossi

Can only comment about the GPA 515-8G's measured specs sent to me, which so far has been as good or slightly better overall than published.............

Hello,
after sound test in box Onken 360 between the model "G" and the model "C", I have chosen the model "C".
Onken 360 (GPA 515-8C) + JBL 3732M/HF + JBL 2402h

I also have box model with "G"
My new Loudspeaker Systems ? Great Plains audio

Seems reasonable, the 360 is much too big and tuned too low for a 'G'.

I don't see where he actually tells us anything useful WRT its specs, performance.
