[QUOTE="ballstothewall, post: 1219988, member: 559563"] Ok, would this tweeter work for a passive setup? [URL="http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=270-050&scqty=2"]http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=270-050&scqty=2[/URL] On the box making, would it be benificial to move the tweeter up one from my current position to three down from the top in order to have only three NSB's in each chamber and not have the tweeter added into one of the chambers to get consistent volume (and just add one more brace) or does it really matter? So every three NSB's are in their own seperate chamber, with some loose polyfill (so no air can pass between any of the chambers)? With a 1" dowl rod horizontally through the chamber to add extra support? Ok, how much Airspace is needed for the NSB's? (and yes I consider myself pretty skilled in a woodshop, just uneducated about box building, I've only built one sub box) And do I need to chamfer the inside side of the hole for the NSB so I don't choke the airflow (I think that is what I read, am I right?) Ok, how do I know what the tweeter will sound good at, or is this just a trial and error sort of thing? Would this crossover work also?

I can solder, I just don't know anything about making a crossover. Thanks a lot with your help on this project, It will prob be going together next weekend I believe. -Ryan [/QUOTE]
