About the Designer
- Conclusion -

From an aesthetic standpoint, I think the design was very successful, as it has seemed to garner quite a bit of interest in the speaker building community. I have received numerous emails asking about the details of the design. With the standard three-way crossover and EQ confi guration, the design pretty much needs to be tweaked to each individual's taste. When the Behringer DCX2496 comes back into stock, I will try to make the EQ/crossover settings available on the website, which can be downloaded directly into the processor.

The biggest strength of these speakers is their ability to play very loudly and with great dynamics. Considering I drove each speaker with a total of about 1400 watts and I was still not reaching the limits of the drivers, this speaks well for their dynamic ability. Most importantly, this type of design can be created with any number of different possible drivers, and is a good example that anything is possible with DIY speaker building. The future of active crossovers and processors bodes well for those who want to build their own unique and creative designs.
