Regarding enclosure mods, I'm definitely going off half cocked here so bear with me but it seems others have done some mods to the enclosures and asked about them also so here goes.
I have been playing with the 8 pi design in Google Sketchup (a great excuse to learn it finally) and would like you to consider the attached model. My first priority would be integrating the tweeter horn as a part of the main enclosure rather than a separate box. A couple ways come to mind, a partition inside so the original enclosure volume for the woofer is not changed and secondly, actually utilizing the extra volume around the tweeter. Is there any advantage to a larger box?
Secondly would be changing the lines into more of a trapezoid shape as shown. As long as I keep the same inside volume is this ok, or does it ruin the design?
