Hi, I've posted here before asking about arrays. I've got a couple more questions : ) How well do you think a design like Zaph's BAMTM would translate to ART Array configuration? I know it would only be efficient as the tweeter but ~91dB is OK with me. The Baffle would be 9" x 95", woofers on the center line with 11" C-T-C and tweeter 1 3/8" off center per John's design. I think the woofer line will need some attenuation to work with my ~12' listening distance. I had originally thought going 2.5 way, but now I'm really wondering if John's simple & elegant x-over is really the way to go. Would it be as simple as bumping up the BSC inductor to match things up? http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n139/its-loud-dude/DA175/DA175Xovr.jpg

I would put the tweeter at ear level for your primary listening position. I tried to compromise with a 104 dB horn tweeter between sitting and standing, the tweeter can keep up with the mids only at ear level for less than 15 feet. So the other day I went out and got 8 feet of tweeter, the world is going to be a much better place.
