Every Thiele-Small figure comes from Ampere's own published table for the AA-3.0 15, and the table holds together: the moving mass and resonance reproduce the published Vas on a cone area in class for a 15 inch driver. Ampere prints no cone area for this driver, so the 754 square centimeters used for excursion and output figures is derived from Ampere's own Vas, resonance and moving mass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-highlight\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.72 cubic feet net per chamber on Ampere's published figures: the dual 2 ohm reads Qtc 0.633 with resonance at 40.0 Hz and half power at 45.3 Hz. That is a slightly over-damped alignment: a gentle, early rolloff and tight transients rather than a flat top. This cabinet is listed for the AA-3.0 15 dual 2 ohm only. Ampere's dual 1 ohm version reads Qtc 0.50 in the same airspace, too damped to sound right sealed, so it is not offered in this enclosure.\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 1.72 cubic feet net each, so every driver sees exactly the airspace printed on this page.

The rear panel rakes 20 degrees, so the cavity deepens from 12.36 in at the top to 18.91 in at the base, and the 11.50 in motor clears it with 0.75 in to spare.

A pair of dual 2 ohm drivers lands on 2 ohms with each woofer's coils in series and the two woofers in parallel, or 8 ohms all in series. Anything under 1 ohm, and many amplifiers at 1 ohm, is outside what the amplifier is built for, so series wiring is the safe default.
