here is the little progression so far...
I'll try to make it brief. As you can see, the first picture with the butt cheek: horns or waveguides were a little too harsh, so I went with the SOAS 12-inch. With that, I needed an adapter that added about 1 1/4 inches. To make up for this, I added an additional 1 1/4 in. to the baffle.
My question is this: I'm wondering about the time alignment between the drivers. I moved the waveguide forward, in order to keep the compression driver and the magnet of the woofer in the same plane as it was before. What I'm wondering about is if the baffle of the waveguide is now on a different plane than the baffle of the woofer. Is there going to be some kind of disconnect or distance?
I wonder if there are some quick measurements I could take to find out where I'm at with the time alignment. I'm considering removing the new baffle and moving the compression driver back an inch or so. I don't know. I really don't know. Any thoughts would be helpful. I have the microphone to do the measurements. I just don't really know how to do it.
