Just some ramblings here. Why ? Well, I am snowed in, and what better to do than chat with Mr. Wayne (?)

1)If I read the 3pi specs correctly, it seems like quite the large box for the 4012HO
2)Coincidentally, I use the Definimax 4012 in my own system. I had NO IDEA they were the preferred driver for the 3pi at one time. It's taken quite some time to squeeze the absolute best out of them (for my needs, at least). I started with the PPSL enclosure, but ultimately decided [that] while the ppsl is great for bass, it's not so great for the upper bass/low midrange. While I always had that "thwack", I missed the sustain/tonal development. I now use 2 drivers per channel; each in it's own divided chamber inside a constrained layer damped birch ply box. QB3/staggered tuning. Infra bass(outside units)slide in just under the QB3 tuning.
3) Seems like Eminence is now offering what might be considered the replacement (?) Under the OMEGA name:OMEGA PRO-12-2KW-8 I'm not exactly thrilled with this, as it's cone is heavier and the Qms is sky high. All in the name of super-high power handling, I guess.

Happy listening to all !
