Thanks Wayne.
I found that the vintage Utah woofers from Ron sound somewhat "muffled" even with the lower, 1200Hz, crossover. Certainly not what 2226 listeners are used to. Still, the quality of the SB-29 tweeter continues to knock me out, so today I decided to install 10" Alphas in place of the Utahs.
I'll make a Frankenspeaker first, retro-fitting the 10" Alphas to the current 12" sealed cabinets. If I hear more clarity, I'll go ahead and build the 2Pi Towers. I have all the drivers, including a pair of DX-25s, so comparisons will be fun. Since the existing c/o, 4th order L-R is for a 4 ohm woofer, I'll use the Tower crossover as you describe. Let you know how it goes.
Merry Christmas and a healthy and happy New Year to all.
