I have a couple quick questions before I start the building process for these speakers, hopefully in the next couple of weeks. First of all, how closely do my measurements need to match the PE enclosure dimensions? I have no problem making the baffle with the proper dimensions, but I'm anticipating the internal volume being a bit off, i.e. the internal dimensions may be 11" deep instead of 10.75". Would this be noticeable at all? Secondly, is the tweeter supposed to have its own seperate chamber? If so, how is that supposed to be worked into the baffle? And lastly, what kind of wall lining is ideal for this design, and where should I put it, exactly? Does the wall lining take away from the internal volume measurements, or do I have to worry about that with the PE internal dimensions? Thanks a lot!
Almost ready to start Modula MT build, couple questions...

I'm a newbie, so treat this advice as worth exatly what you're paying for it...

Do not change the volume based on any added wall lining.
Good luck with your build. Pics are required.- Bottom

Good advice JonW.
I'd add that most people would not create a separate chamber for the tweeter, as it is supposed to have its own integral 'chamber'.
Some, including our Jon M I believe, suggest a separate chamber is appropriate to ensure full and complete separation from the woofer(s) on high end designs, but probably not on bookshelves.- Bottom
