Interesting, you learn something new here on AK all the time. Thanks

It'll never completely subside (at least, it hasn't in the pair I've been running in the home theatre every day for a few years now), you'll probably find a notch filter will be required.

How is it with the notch filter?

Everything is a compromise
A bit less in-your-face sound from the upper midrange peak, but a bit less lively as a result. Try it both ways, and decide which one YOU like better in YOUR system, that's all that really matters...Roscoe

Thanks Roscoe, will give it time and see what happens and decide on the notch filter down the line.

Two XLR female to RCA male cables and two XLR male to RCA male cables. If you plan to also use the subwoofer out I believe it takes a single XLR female to RCA male cable. You can look at a rear picture of the 2310 and tell for sure on all this.

If you want to use your own cables these XLR to RCA adaptors will also work.

Excellent!
Let us know how the SLOB compares to your other OB's.

Nelson Pass design, correct. 5 hrs or so listening time and it good. Bass is nice and tight. I have added an L pad to the FR drivers and adjust as needed. Don't think i need 4 woofers. Mabey down the road I'll try some of those expensive woofers. I don't need thumping bass. Just quality bass and this design is headed in the right direction. It seems defined, not spread out. Mind you I'm only using 2a3's SET's on the woofers. Wondering if more power down there would make a difference. Wife doesn't like em' . She have to deal with it.
Beautification underway,
to keep peace. My wife doesn't care for the way the drivers stick out because of the color. I'm looking around for FR'ers that have a lighter tone cone. Suppose grill covers would solve this issue. Say's she liked the Cornwalls.I'll eventually reproduce these with some kind of laminate ply. SLOB are performing well. I've implemented an stereo L-pad so I can attenuate the FR drivers as needed. Different attenuation levels for different types of music. I have been also considering Lowthers and would appreciate all feedback. Also some different woofers.

mkane, I was using the same block terminals as you until I discovered these. Lowes sells them and they're much easier to use and cheaper.

You just insert bare wires in each end and then tighten down the set screw. They make crossover connections a breeze.
mark,
are you using them alone or have you added tweeters?
oh, and pics are needed

I'm using the same baffles I had before. They have a pair of tweeters mounted to them but, I don't have them hooked up. I'll get some pic tomorrow.mark,
