    That would be great Pete if you could come up with a project using the 8948A in a .75ft3 box.

    I already have the woofer and the boxes, so all I would need to purchase are the special baffles and the tweeter you choose(unless you choose the Seas H1212).

      I've got a pair of 8945A's in a .75 cu ft PE box that needs tweeters. If you'll design for the 8945A, I'll spot the tweeters for testing and buy a pair of WG baffles. We can still do that TB tweeter, or possibly the new one.

        Will these have any sort of finish applied to them or will they be raw MDF?

            Would this wave guide work well with this tweeter? http://www.parts-express.com/pe/show...number=279-051

            I have a buddy that has a cnc router table. I'm not sure what software he is using to control it. If you cut these using a cnc router table, I was curious if you would be interested in sharing/selling the files needed so he could cut these for me on his router table. I just keep looking at that Peerless tweeter with no faceplate trying to figure out how to make it useful. Ever since I saw the waveguide on the miniByzantium project, I've been wondering about it's use with that tweeter.

                It would most likely work with any tweeter. The problem with that Peerless is the 2000Hz Fs. Even with the WG, it's probably still only going to be useful to no lower than 2000Hz or so.

                  Not sure about that particular design, but this could certainly fit in the category of an e-wave design, and with a 7" woofer, certainly a "mini."

                    It's not that $75 isn't a reasonable price - in fact, it's better than similar projects I've seen where people have offered waveguides in small quantities. I'm just saying, for some of us cheaper will mean affordable, and, we may want a different size baffle.

                    So, if anyone is willing to make and sell some of these as smaller squares (how wide is the waveguide part exactly again?) for us to integrate into our own baffles that would also be much appreciated.

                    I guess regardless, I would want to buy one pair of whatever is available soonest as I'd like to test a pair before school starts on the 21st.

                      Great minds think alike. I have those exact parts sitting in front of me. Ordered them about a month ago, but haven't built anything yet. Next week hopefully. I'll probably be doing a 2.5 way though. Using the PE HR08W right? Hoping for 90db/w/m. We might be able to bounce ideas off each other.

                      As for this project. I'd be interested. I have a hard time comparing a $10 WG to a $37.50 WG/baffle. Can you post your results of this profile? And do you have results for any other tweeters, other than just the RS28? Thanks.

                        Can I ask about the roughness of the waveguide surface after machining?

                          I'm sure they will be smooth or he would not bother.

                          I bought the 8" last November at idiy. Got the sb about the same time. Just waiting for a proper waveguide. Pete knows the one I want.

                            So this waveguide... it's a secret?

                            Another question to add to the list, ship to Canada? Might be expensive. I have a MN address if the difference is big.

                              Questions for those interested. I have a 1" round-over. I could put that around the 10x17 baffles. I also have a 3/8ths round-over. Also, I'll sand down the baffles to 220 grit. Sound good? I'd like to get 4 guys to order before I pick up sheets of 1" plum creek MDF. Give me some feed-back, guys.

                                I think I might be confused about the type of waveguide to be included in the baffle. Is it round, elliptical,...? How deep? Is the baffle a stack of CNCed MDF or a single piece.
