About this driver

The SB Acoustics SATORI MR13P-4 is a 4.5″ fullrange with a free-air resonance of 41 Hz and a total Q (Qts) of 0.23. Its efficiency-bandwidth product (EBP) of 164 points toward a ported alignment. In a 2.3 L sealed box it reaches an F3 of 126.0 Hz (Qtc 0.707); a suggested 3.0 L box tuned to 72.8 Hz extends to about 92.7 Hz. See the sealed vs ported guide for how to choose.

modeled estimate

The tweeters below pair well with the SB Acoustics SATORI MR13P-4 in a two-way design — each grade is a modeled estimate of the crossover match, with a suggested crossover point. Open any pair in the guided builder to design the crossover and total the parts.

Modeled estimate from T/S + geometry — no measurements. The verdict is robust; it improves with measured FRD/ZMA data.
