I'm trying to build a relatively compact full-range OB speaker for a friend as a graduation gift. While it will sound better than anything he's heard, the hitch is that I have to be satisfied with the sound quality
After playing around with a pair of 15" SI coaxials, I just can't take the sort of mid-range hollowness and ragged response of the tweeter. Not bad for the price, but those issues are just to noticeable for me.
Was thinking about an audio physic cs2-like design with a wave-guided tweeter, or a pro-tweeter and a horn crossed around 900Hz. Woofer would be 1 Eminence alpha. Does this sort of design necessitate an active crossover/high slopes to sound decent?
Most of the related work I've seen has been active, so I wondered if anyone had luck with a similar design and a passive network. This seems to be the place for related designs...
