Hey! I wanna change the speaker driver in my Peltor headphones, the driver that is currently in use says on the backside "CPC 100ohm 0.1W 1431". Can someone help me out what other driver I can put in and if a crossover is necessary. Maybe someone has already done a project similar to this? 🙂

 

thanks in advance

What matters are the impedance: 100 ohms and the max power handling: 100mW in this case. Beyond that it also has to physically fit which is one of those jokes about standards.

You won't use a crossover in headphones. I can be done, but then there is an issue of directionality. I'm sure some high-end, mega-expensive brand with huge can space for the drivers and maybe even a relief port for extra bass.

Headphone speakers don't have as much to deal with as other ones as they are so close to our ears.

Take everything I say with a pinch of salt, I might be wrong and it's a very *expensive* way to learn!
