[QUOTE="Carl Klinkenborg, post: 214192, member: 12770"] Given the relative efficiencies which I would estimate to be around 105db/W and 95db/W for the compression driver and 15" respectively, the power rating would be about -10dB compared with the power required by the 15", ie 30W, so you are probably not too far off with the driver and crossover point you have. There are endless 'fixes' which could be applied, requiring time, measurements, and expense, however if you are happy with the sound (not too 'toppy' due to the efficiency of the HF driver - this might need a tweak), and the data you have supplied is correct, I would say Party on Dude.
