OB-10F-15W

The OB-10F-15W is our reference baffle setup, using the combination of an 10 inch FR driver and a 15 inch subwoofer. We use the Lii audio Fast 10 and the SB Audience Bianco 15. We offer additional customizations, including color and wood type, and another amplifier option. If you have further customization ideas, please visit our Contact Us page and let us know. The upgraded charges are listed below and reflect pair pricing. There are a limited number of 10 inch full range drivers that could be substituted, primarily possible upgrades from Lii audio. The Fast 10 that we use is just amazing. The best sounding full ranger that we have tried so far. Admittedly, there are many higher priced full rangers, particularly in the 8 inch group that we have never tried.

Lii Audio Fast 10: Has the extension and detail of the Audio Nirvana Super 8, but it has a smoother overall response and has a bit more bloom in the lower midrange/upper bass like its little brother, Lii Fast 8. The detail, presence and smoothness are all excellent. It is about 4 dB more sensitive and has less distortion at higher volumes than the 8 inch drivers that we offer. It can get lower in bass output, so it can be used with plate amps that have lower low-pass settings.

The Fast 10 driver represents my recommendation at its price level. There are a few other 10 inch FR drivers available from Lii that could be incorporated for additional charges. Contact us if you have a specific driver preference; we could consider on a case-by-case basis. 

SB Audience Bianco 15: This is the clear winner in the budget open-baffle woofer competition. Other offerings from Eminence and Goldwood were good in some respects, but not as complete overall. The Bianco has much greater excursion and a lower QTS. It is a bit lower in sensitivity but has greater extension and control than the others. It has a stamped steel frame like the others, but it is much nicer and has arches in the legs that stiffen along the length and width of each. We treat each woofer basket leg with damping material to reduce resonance. It works very well with all of the plate amps that are paired with it and was able to handle extra power with ease.

Dayton Audio SPA300-D: 150 watts at 8 ohms, 300 watts at 4 ohms. Crossover from 40-200 HZ. Defeatable 30Hz - 6dB Boost setting.

Yung SD 300: 150 watts at 8 ohms, 300 at 4ohms. Crossover from 40-200 Hz with or without 30Hz - 6dB Boost setting.

Typical in-room Frequency Response: 35-18,000 Hz, 98 dB/1w/1m.

 How-to build: Use the buttons below to build your custom open baffle loudspeakers. The buttons indicate any additional charges for upgraded customizations. Start with wood type and color - we do not recommend chevron wood with the black color as you do not see the wood pattern as well. The side rails come standard in black unless otherwise indicated by you.
