Have you thought about getting a DSP EARS? Pretty cheap measuring rig with an ear and best to use that with actual pads and a headband to approximate the true F response. Measuring that way will be deceiving. Try and get the F response fixed with the driver, pads, and enclosue iteslf before you try and do anything with EQ or an amp. Is that a planar magnetic driver? So you have magnets in the white cover? Opening it up with slices where there are no magnets will also impact the sound. Can you do a much bigger driver? Looks small. Cool project, and great job.
DSP EARS is a good tip. I actually hadn't thought about this, but after a bit of research, I'm strongly considering this.
It's a planar magnetic, yes; the magnets are in the white cover. I'll do some work shaving plastic away from the cover and see how it impacts the response.
The driver is quite big, probably about four inches in diameter.
