Summary Result Tile

What the summary result tile means in 00 Simulator, including F3, F10, sensitivity, max SPL, excursion, and tuning values.

Direct answer

The summary tile is the quick health check for one simulated enclosure: extension, sensitivity, maximum output, excursion, and enclosure-specific tuning values.

What it measures

  • F3 and F10 low-frequency cutoff points from the simulated SPL response.
  • Sensitivity at the configured reference condition, shown as 1 W/1 m in the UI summary.
  • Maximum SPL and peak excursion across the simulated frequency range.
  • For vented designs, box tuning, calculated port length, and peak port velocity where available.

Why it matters

  • It lets you compare alignments before opening every graph.
  • It catches obvious mismatches such as good extension but excessive excursion.
  • It exposes practical build values, especially vent length and tuning frequency.

How to read it in 00 Simulator

  • Use F3 and F10 as extension landmarks, not as the whole tonal balance story.
  • Compare max SPL and peak excursion together; one can look acceptable while the other is the limiting factor.
  • For vented designs, check port length and peak port velocity before treating the alignment as buildable.

What good, warning, and bad usually look like

Good
The cutoff points, max SPL, excursion, and build values all support the same design goal.
Warning
A single impressive value, such as low F3, is paired with high excursion, high port velocity, or impractical port length.
Bad
The summary shows a limit breach or a non-buildable tuning choice that the detailed graphs confirm.

Common false conclusions

  • A lower F3 does not automatically mean better bass in a room or venue.
  • Max SPL is not the same as clean continuous output at every frequency.
  • The summary is not a substitute for checking excursion and port velocity over frequency.

App behavior notes

  • The internal simulation API exposes this as the `summary` tile.
  • Summary fields are derived from the same simulation result used by the graphs.
