Frequency response at 1m with 2.83 V input RED - on axis, BLUE - 15 º off axis, GREEN - 30 º off axis

The second, third and fourth harmonic curves measured at 2.83V and 8V input RMS.

Burst decay response, measured at 1m on axis

The impedance curve - free and in 38 ltr sealed box
Conclusion
This driver really has an excellent performance up to 2KHz (in this case a notch at 3300Hz is mandatory) and T/S parameters suitable for bassreflex cabinets.
