DISCLAIMER(S):

I know about and understand Jim's white paper. Actually I have sat though his array presentation as well as met him. Very nice and smart guy.

I realize the ISD-25 has some design flaws that make the price seem pretty "out there".

I am interested in this project because of the simple design and realtively high performance/cost ratio.

I know this design also needs active EQ for the same reason the IDS does.

I would prefer to build a design from Selah audio (and will eventually) but I do not have time to build the no holds barred enclosure that would go along with it.

So this is what I had in mind...

I need about 50 of these but there is a price break @ 100 pieces. $600 buys 100 of them. If someone is interested I would like to split a 100 piece purchase.

Parts Express has these but it is more pricey ($685/100). The Mad driver looks better though...

I could not find any info for the PE Part but the Mad part has a PDF here:

I posted here first since it is a line array board (obviously) but also because it is neutral ground for the suppliers mentioned. I would appreciate it if you guys might spread the word as you see approriate. I frequent the PE board and watch the Mad board so if I do not get any interested people I will try those boards next.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
