4-pi "clone", active - am I on the right track?
Hello, I built a set of four Pi "clones", similar build but a tad smaller and no horizontal offset for the tweeter. I am trying to understand / learn along this process so my current crossover is probably far from ideal. I am using a MiniDSP device. Any idea how I should set the crossovers and time alignment? Many thanks in advance.

Those look cool! Here are some things to consider, test and check: Phase angles, crossovers and baffle spacing Baffle spacing, phase angles and time alignment, revisited Crossover optimization for DI-matched two-way speakers Cabinet design, port placement and internal standing waves Damping material placement You might also check some of the other links in the Pi Speakers FAQ.
