Sonar 8.5 Producer: Sonitus EQ Settings

I'm making recordings for a new alarm clock I'm planning to design, and I'm wondering, how would I EQ them so they sound like they're coming from the speaker of an alarm clock, like that of a GE clock radio? Should I use Sonitus EQ or another plugin? Or should I use my external SPL Pass EQ?

I Dream of Australia, France, and Canada, three wonderful nations that represent who I really am.

    I guess it depends a lot on the alarm clock. A hefty highpass (low cut) and lowpass (high cut) filter seem reasonable. Easiest would be if you could hook up the alarm clock speaker and amp.

    BTW the alarm is 13'30" into the video!

    It's not the alarm I'm trying to design, but the speaker. I'm not sure what speaker it is, but I'm wondering what EQ settings I can apply within Sonitus to make the same quality sound from that speaker.
