One would be enough. I'm currently running a SVS PB12 ISD so that would be a big step up for my HT.2 or 4

I think the project Crites CS-1 has a great similarity with the econowave or I am wrong?

It would be interesting to see how his woofers look in measurement. They're not expensive, I don't know about their performance. Maybe someone at the Klipsch site measured them. Saw T/S parameters posted on that forum for one of his his 15" woofers. I know he had stuff manufactured by Eminence in the past.
Pair of CW1228 woofers $170.00

Sadly, that's the case, and shipping speakers is always a significant effort, unless one has custom shipping containers (these were palletized, didn't have shipping boxes).

Schultze!
Show us pics!
And tell me something: were their "lot" prices on the website for real? Like 50 bucks for 8 cabinets on a pallet? Unreal.
The "lot prices" were for when they were selling them.
These, are FREE. 2 days left EWavers! After friday they get dumpsterized.
No pics yet, maybe later.
Creative sound Trio 12 is max flat in that box and has a heck of a motor on it. Needs the baffle hole enlarged though. Since I have so many of these cabs, I plan to build a router jig so as to be able to use them with typical 12"s.

I just ordered a trio of QSC 152 Waveguides, front left and right, and center channels. These will be used in my Jamboree folded horns.
I already have the GPA 902's, so will try. If they are deficient then will replace with BMS drivers. What would be an 'ideal' crossover frequency for the Mid range tractrix horn to the QSC Waveguide. The bass part of the Jamboree folded horn has two 15 inch Drivers and a SPL of 107 db/1 watt 1 meter and responds smoothly to 940 cyles. The crossover for the Bass to mid horn is an ALK steep slope design at 600 cycles. The JBL 2445J is padded down 7 db via an autotransofrmer to match the bass unit. The GPA 902 is 106 db efficent, so no padding down is necessary. I am thinking that a 12 db cossover design would be adequate for the mid to hf driver, but am unsure of a crossover frequency.
Any help or suggestions from the forum would be appreciated. I am in the process of learning about waveguides, which is probably very obvious!
Thanks, Larry

Zilch,
Unforunately, I have no information as to when the Tractrix begins to beam and or what its dispersion is at that frequency. It is a 90 degree Horizontal x 60 degree Vertical horn with a cutoff of approx 280 cycles and an effective range of 400 to 17000 cycles. It is made by Soniphase, but there is no information on beaming/dispersion. Is this an item that my RTA setup could measure?
