Problem with smaller horns is they don't go Low, if I'm thinking of what your talking about. And I just wouldn't do it.

I would look at the AA set because I still think it's going pretty damn cheap, I think. I can't even remember what ngsm13 and I paid for the pair when we got them. If your interested I can tell you some of the raw plans for ours...... They should be built in the next couple weeks then I'm doing plotting and such for them and posting it up.....

Those MTM's or whatever the nomenclature was? I saw those and they're definitly on the list of possibilities (god **** that was hard to spell, lol). PM me the plans just in case I do pick those up. But wouldnt those pose the same problem as the horns? I.E. the ability to not pick up the bottom end? I've definitly got sub-bass taken care of but I'm worried about any freq gaps b/w where those mids will shine and where the sub shines...

Im running the aa mtm's in some towers right now..Theyre definately worth the price, very happy with them. I think I paid $332 shipped for the two w/ unassembled x-overs.

$325?! Its not $165 for the pair? Fvck....I really liked the way they looked and how yours turned out; granted mine probably wont look half as good. Hmm...Maybe I should stick to PE drivers since I do have the whoesale account...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif I already have a tweeter that PE accidently shipped me so I'm 25% of they way towards a set of Bookshelfs, lol.

I'll post up some drivers that had me droolin in a sec....

 

[j3bus2k3 5,000+ posts]

Well, PE tech guy recommended a 2-way setup for simplicity of the build and crossover along with driver matching. I dunno though. We tossed around the idea of that TB tweeter (http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshowdetl.cfm?&PartNumber=264-822&DID=7&raid=46&rak=264-822) with a dayton 7" woofer and then building the proper crossover. Any thoughts or suggestions? I know ya'll have some.

I forgive you only because Ash kicks *** //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I was look at those earlier and they seemed like they would get the job done for not too much $$$

 

[btnhfan 5,000+ posts]

Yea I was thinking the same thing.

Not too expensive, handle pretty good power.

Those drivers should be pretty decent... A lot of people like the Tang Band drivers....
