Hi all!
I'm planning my big WMTMW tower. And since I've already been doing so for the last year, I'm in no hurry to settle on a particular design / combination.
So far, I believe the midranges will definitely be the RS150s. The tweeter is almost surely the RS28 (the DXT driver from SEAS is too expensive - I'd need to mod it with the 27TBFC magnet to get the benefits I'd like).
And so far, the woofer is the RS225. I already have the 4 drivers I'd need. But somehow, the urge to upgrade hit me before I even started building the things. And I'm wondering how much better the RS270s are.
Apparently, from the simulations I've been running, a pair of 270s will have more sensitivity and have a higher impedance (plus I can tune the box lower).
The disadvantages are, quite obviously, box size (140L vs. 100L) and the price I'd have to pay to get the 270s here ($445!!!!). But, since I've waited enough time, I guess I can save a bit more money IF the RS270 is a real ste up.
Or maybe I should substitute the midranges for W4-1337s... agh. If you had the choice, which item would you substitute? Or, would you stick to RS225's - RS150's - RS28's?
