A browser-based loudspeaker design toolkit that matches drivers to enclosure volume, budget, and target bass cutoff.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-08 issue.

Field notes

The public finder accepts a maximum enclosure volume, target F3 cutoff, optional euro budget, and preferred driver diameter, then screens the project’s stated 9,000-plus manufacturer-driver records. The page separates this roughly 100-millisecond analytical pass from a private Studio workflow that reportedly adds minimum SPL at F3, excursion headroom, port velocity below 17 m/s, tube-length constraints, and a 260-iteration optimizer. Laboratory testing and physical acoustic validation are marked as in progress.
