The impedance isn’t as pretty as it was but still quite good and livable for any HTR imo.. I’m excited for this build.

good to hear cause we're getting serious now !!!

Excellent - Really neat driver selection with the DS90-Neo MTM and the RS225 for W. Sim looks good for sure to start!

i really like how the baffle layout looks ... fix'in to cut that now ...

[filmslayer]

phew !!!







still much work . tomorrow i'll i'll build the mtm chamber , pre-wire it and pre-drill , screw everything down and start to get the XO together . i'm thinking it will be playing and measurements on Sat.

That’s nice, keeps driving home that I should have gone mtm!

man 3 ways are a lot of work ....

got the port cut which then allowed me to do the bracing . mtm chamber built and attached to baffle . lined and stuffed . all drivers wired and in place . all that's left is pre-drilling and screwing everything . i also gathered most of the XO components into a pile ....

time for a few cold ones and to crank up my big black beauties .....

as i sit here rock'in out enjoying a cold adult beverage i went through my XO parts .... i'm missing a 3mH for the woofer , so i came up with this from parts i have on hand and what i'll start with tomorrow until i can order some ....

That is still an excellent looking response. That downward slope is something that is talked about quite regularly, with a white paper (by Toole?) showing that in a blind test, speakers with that downward sloping response were preferred over speakers with flat response. All that to say, you will probably like it! How do the reverse nulls look?

the one thing i've noticed in the 3-4 speakers i have designed is my ear likes a certain signature which has the top end down 3-5db ....


got all my XO parts together and starting on that now ...

i will add that flushing the DS90's is kind of a pain in the azz ! the magnet is big and not much smaller than the frame . the tabs lay down over it and using insulated connectors forced me to notch the through hole . if i ever use them again they will get rear mounted and or i'll solder the leads .

,meh ....

[filmslayer]

LOL ! one day i'll figure out how to make them look decent ....

[filmslayer]

and that mess is this ....







getting ready to fire it up now .

[filmslayer]

very nicely balanced ... setting up to measure now .
