A method of modeling the frequency-dependent input-voltage-to-excursion transfer function of a loudspeaker, comprises, for a plurality of measurement frequencies, measuring a voltage and current and deriving an impedance at the measurement frequency. A frequency-dependent impedance function is derived.By additionally using the blocked electrical impedance and a force factor for the loudspeaker, a frequency-dependent input-voltage-to-excursion transfer function can be calculated.The invention provides a modeling approach which is not based on a parametric model, but computes the transfer functions for a set of frequencies separately. As a consequence, it does not require prior knowledge regarding the enclosure (e.g. closed or vented box) and can cope with complex designs of the enclosure.
