At this point, you should run one of the programs that tell you what o use. I know that my system sounds fabulous with no feeling of hearing speakers at all, but only of hearing performers. The problem is that my system was designed as a total package. I don't know if taking the Sammi's and putting them into a giant box where all the back sound interacts with each other would produce the same quality as I have, and I'm not willing to conjecture about it. So good luck. Use one of the programs. FWIW, the volume on my individual speakers, crossed at 165 and 2400, was a cylinder of 4 inches x 23.5 inches= 295.42857142857116 inches. You don't have to be as precise as I was.

MARC, No problems with lobing that I have noticed. As to spacing, it depends on your nearfield listening, your crossover frequencies, and other parameters from Jim Griffin's white paper. Marlboro

The frames are difficult since there are four mounting screw holes on the outside. A judicious use of a little black silicone adhesive in a very tight place makes the seal solid. I would recommend that you re-read Rod Elliot on the evils of passive crossovers in speaker design. Are you tossing the Neo's, and everything?
