Actually those two have the same motor on them. They are the same, 7.8mm.

Okay.  First program I used gave me a Vb of 1.35 ft^3 and Total internal of 1.371 ft^3 with the T/S params.  Dunno why the total was more than Vb in this case because I had no internal driver dimensions plugged in for the program to add cabinet volume to compensate for    The Fb is 34.62 Hz and F3 is 37.6 Hz.  It gave some strange dimensions also, so I used a width and depth like the A/V-3's which is internal dims of 6.5" W x 10" D.  Getting to 1.37 ft^3 results in internal 36.5" H.  And a 3" one flared end port tube of 9+".
6.5" x 10" x 36.5" = 2,372.5 in^3 = 1.373 ft^3.  External dimensions: 38" H x 8" W x 11.5" D.
I don't know the O.D. of the M-165X, so 8" baffle width may be too narrow.

It's 10:20pm, and I've been up since 4:40am, so I have a great excuse for errors  aa
G'night!

Any news on when the RAV-1 will be released?

[RAW]

Well the RAV-1 will be coming as soon as we can get the new crossover done
Why well the XBL^2 motor for the M-130 is done but sources for the motor are not final and this will make the delivery of the XBL^2  M-130 8 ohm driver not till January or February

Then add that XBL^2 motors will only be done in 8ohm this make the only speaker of the AV series that can be offered with the XBL^2 motor a possibility is the RAV-1 due to the 8ohm driver.
The RAV-3S will need 16ohm drivers which are not going to be made for now just the 8ohm drivers.

So BIG CHANGE in plans.
The RAV series will come  out but all will use the standard M-130 drivers (NON XBL^ 2) this will also make the kits more cost effective as well.
However the RAV-1 will be offered with the XBL^2 motors this model will be called the RAV-1X.(when the XBL^2 drivers arrive see time frame above)

This is the design that was at RMAF in our room and as we only have a single pair of them this pair is not for sale any longer till the inventory arrives with XBL^2 motors.

I will have the RAV-1 design finished in the next week and ready at that time.
