- 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.
