I already have the mid-horn, don't I?

It's the same as for the 7PI with a 10" driver? I tried it way back when and discovered the JBL 2123s were blown. They're still in the box, un-repaired.

Yes, that's it! Same midhorn.

Y'all be waiting awhile for that result index.php?t=getfile&id=315&private=0


I've got the pieces on the bench almost ready to assemble for the Utah/SB Acoustics nearlylikethe2PiTowerexceptit'ssealed speaker, and that took months to get motivated.

Unfortunately, I've just realised that there's a 3" difference between the plane of the tweeter and woofer voice coils. I'm just 2 used to horns! I really don't want a box on top of box look so will prolly abandon the idea of time aligning the voice coils.

Any ideas?

Bill,

I don't think that the 3" difference will matter much in the big scheme of things. Of course if it does, that can be rectified with a more complex crossover.

Ron sends...
