Excellent write up, excellent pix!
That GTG was special. Very well organized, very well instrumented and managed, and best of all, look at the varied speakers.
GTGs, it's an American pass time.
By using a "generic" cross-over design on the Tang band tweeter, what failures are likely to happen?
The Tang Band factory suggested a cross-over no lower than 1800Hz.
What am I getting myself into if I cross at 1500Hz?

In researching the change in cross-over for the Tang Band tweeter to a lower Hz, I notice that my intended cross-over @1500Hz moves the tweeter impedance onto the instep of the impedance spike.
The tweeter impedance goes from 6.6ohms at...

`Thanks Coctostan. I noted there were compromises that had to be made especially in the shaping of the waveguides.
I also noted that you were an active participant in the wave guide formula permutations. Good work.

That doesn't seem too difficult, replace the dome tweeter with a CD (compression driver) and a waveguide, modify the crossover, and wahlah I've got the ultimate.
In reading all the latest SEOS stuff, it seems you end up with a 75 to 90...

I've looked at many compression drivers anticipating a possible 2 way project sometime in the future.
Many of the...
I'm always willing to compromise as long as I get my way . . .
