[QUOTE="thylantyr, post: 2584650, member: 560358"] [B]Heres some photos of the new dorm setup with the MTM's I made using Dayton Reference 7/Morel MDT29's. Sounds alright, need to do some more work to get them better, EQ, etc, etc. [/B] Polyfill or equivalent in the box ? Add a ~15mS delay on mid and tweeter DCX output for an effect. 5mS - 25mS might give you a 'concert hall' effect. Do you have too much midrange sound in relation to bass due to bafflestep ? [URL="http://sound.westhost.com/bafflestep.htm"]http://sound.westhost.com/bafflestep.htm[/URL] if so, you can add an EQ setting for the mid output only -> LP setting, 6dB slope, frequency = ~ 500hz, try +3dB boost. These are just ballpark numbers as the DCX allows you to tweak settings. I'd sweep the frequency from 200hz - 700hz to see how it sounds. Try 1, 2, 3 up to 6dB of boost. Whatever sounds good to you. Dayton Reference 7" may have audible breakup modes beyond 2khz crossover and you might hear is with a shallow slope, so I'd keep the 48dB/octave but it's an easy experiment to try. I like Butterworth 3rd order, LR 4th order, and LR 8th order soundwise. [/QUOTE]
