At a high level, I understand the need for baffle step compensation in the crossover.
I want to replace my "evil eyeball" speakers (Klipsch quintet's) with a pair of Nat p's and a MTM center channel. My wife came up with the 'eyeball" comment so she was not impressed with these micro speakers...
The concept I am working on, I want to build an entertainment system with the Nat P's (front port tower design) and sealed center channel built in. The cabinets will be 24" deep and attached or next to the wall.
But internally, the volume for the speaker section of the cabinet will be as the designers recommend. Basically the speakers will be a separate box inside these rather large cabinets.
So the center channel for example will be a 2' deep by ~5' wide box with the speaker box inside . Same for the Nat P's.
Should the cross over which includes baffle step compensation for this design? What is the determine factor, having an open space behind the speaker or how far the baffle is from the wall?
