Who made that open baffle speaker? Looks like a Scan-Speak midrange

Those are Dave's (DLR) work in progress Dipole 3-way - here's some info from his web page Dual Peerless 10" - SS 15W/4531G - Seas DXT.

They were being crossed over using Bodzio Software's Ultimate Equalizer but from what I heard the tweeter to mid cross really impressed me. Dave was still working on ideas for the woofers but I'd guess they'll sound fantastic by the time they're done.

Yes, still a work-in-progress. The open baffle woofers are actually to be a quasi-H dipole. Or maybe I should call them a non-ideal cardioid. I want to cross them a bit higher than one might do with an H-frame dipole and I also am opposed to the diffraction of an M/T panel on the H-frame if aligned with the woofers. I'm leaving the top panel off of the front section and with the side panel depth being slightly deeper behind than in front, so I don't know what to call it.

It's definitely better than it was at DIY NE (I fnished the initial woofer baffle the night before). Using the Ultimate Equalizer makes it so much easier to experiment. I doubt I would do this without the UE. The UE as it is in SE v17 is sufficient, however, since it's a 3-way only at this point.

I have to make a good set of off-axis measurements before doing much more. I don't yet know what kind of response I'm getting there.

dlr, great collection of speakers.

Is there an opinion thread on all of them? The lines is awesome but I want to know more about the waveguide build. I wonder how it did, It would be harder for it to compete in that sort of listening test (I would think).
