Every figure comes from NVX's owner's manual and product pages for the VCW122v3 and VCW124v3, including the 0.150 cubic foot driver displacement and the bolt circle, so nothing here is estimated. NVX's manual prints two T\/S columns for the 12 inch v3 that cannot both be true; both NVX product pages print the VCW122v3 column's 25 Hz resonance, so that column is used for both coils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-highlight\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e0.85 cubic feet net per chamber is NVX's own optimal sealed volume on the D2 figures, Fs 25.1 Hz, Qts 0.40 and Vas 42.9 liters: Qtc 0.667, half power at 44.4 Hz. One cabinet serves both coils: the VCW122v3 (D2) reads Qtc 0.667 with half power at 44.4 Hz, and the VCW124v3 (D4) reads Qtc 0.667 at 44.4 Hz. That is NVX's own optimal sealed volume for the VCW12v3. It reads Qtc 0.67 on the D2 and 0.67 on the D4, a little under the 0.707 of a maximally flat alignment, so the rolloff is gentle rather than peaked.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Fully Separate Chambers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bonded full-height 3\/4 inch MDF divider splits the cabinet into two sealed chambers of 0.85 cubic feet net each, so every driver sees exactly the airspace printed on this page.
