Wayne,

Still lovin the H290C. However, I did a run room and placement testing to find that a 15" two way just wasn't working well in my room. Mainly that the midbass was much smoother with the woofer close to the floor rather high enough to keep the horn at ear level. That forced me into a threeway with the trusty 2118J being put back into service. After three weeks of iterative measurements, changes, listening and calculations I arrived at about a 2000Hz crossover for best balance from the H290C/DE250 to the 2118. I use the same padding as the 3PI but change the other values to 5uf, 0.6mh, 12uf for a higher lowpass. All in all, I like the horn\driver combo better than before.

What values would you recommend for that point?

Thanks,

Scott
