Re: Definimax 4012HO - End of Life
I don't remember specifically what made me pass on the Faital drivers for three Pi model, because I looked at many midwoofers back then.
In many cases, the problem that keeps a driver "off the table" is the basic electro-mechanical stuff. T...

Aliza
I've just released a fun little chatbot. As a nod to Weizenbaum's Eliza program, I've called it "Aliza."
If you don't know "Eliza" or who Joseph Weizenbaum was, ask Aliza.
You can reach it at any of these locations:

Re: 3Pi plans and questions
Certainly, a person can always employ the single-sub route. But to be very honest, this is a worst-case scenario. You really want to use at least a pair of subs - setup as flanking subs. And if possible, add one or two more distant subs configured as ...

You can buy waveguides and crossovers from us.
I wouldn't suggest modifying cabinet dimensions unless you can do acoustic measurements to verify there is no regression from the changes. The thing to watch out for is lower-midrange...

Re: speaker plans 4 pi
That's awesome! Hope it was a good deal for both you and the seller.
The deal with the center channel is the port can be removed for aesthetics. There isn't a benefit when doing so, in fact, there's a slight penalty. But only slight. The spectral ...

Re: Jbl 2226h and 2447h
I've sent plans to your email address.
The horn you'll need is the Pi Speakers H290C waveguide/horn. It's the only part you can't buy locally because we're the only company that makes it. All the other parts you can purchase anywhere.
You don't h...

And - yes - the polyimide version of the DE250 is the one you want.
By the way, look into the concept of flanking subs too. If you don't use a pair right away, maybe save that for an upgrade project later.

Re: Am I in the Right Place?
You've got mail!
You'll want the spacing between horn and midwoofer to be as close as possible to provide a tall forward lobe. Watch the "Vertical Nulls" video in the "Crossover optimization for DI-matched two-way speakers" link I...

Re: Am I in the Right Place?
Going a little larger - to 5ft3 - adds a smidge more bass and remains properly damped. You can model it and see what I mean, or build a physical model and measure it. Going smaller reduces bass output, but again, remains properly damped. So that's a u...

Re: Pi3 vs Pi4
The posted measurements are for the fully upgraded models, but the differences in response aren't major. The benefit of upgraded midwoofer drivers is mostly reduced distortion because the upgraded drivers have shorting rings.
That's not the case with...
