Greeting once again folks, okay here is the plan, until I can obtain the big machine I will forge ahead with the alternative. Which is to borrow the crossover from another speaker and design and build the cabinet, fully time aligned and mirror imaged. This way all that will have to be done is to construct the new crossover and then compare the two side by side. As fate dictates this model will just so happen to be right in the middle of the two speakers I had originally intended to design and construct, the 4 or 8 way systems. The reason being that the borrowed crossover is a five way system that I have added a 15" sub woofer and sub woofer crossover to making it a six way system, the photo shows all the parts except the 1 " dome tweeter which has not arrived yet. After having examined the borrowed crossover very closely their is no way anyone could know what was going through this guys mind to be able to design and construct such an apparatus as this. The amazing thing is that it actually worked, and there is no speaker at any price today that can compare with the sound and sophistication of this one. The most difficult aspect of this current project will be the location of the crossover, putting it inside the cabinet is impractical because it produces heat which should be vented along with disruptions from magnetic fields and placing it outside posses a risk that it could get damaged for a number of reasons. But I will think of something. This could easily take a couple of months to achieve so until then have a safe day.
