[QUOTE="Peter Morris, post: 204107, member: 652"] A bit about the design –- unlike the double 10 & 12, this design was not focused on SPL, weight and size ...… just sound quality. The B&C 14”" drivers are mounted in a seal enclosure. The volume in front of the drivers provides some gain around 500Hz and also acts a low pass filter to limit distortion. The main reason to partially cover the 14’s and have two slots above and below the HF horn was to control directivity. If you don’t do that the vertical directive gets too narrow before you crossover into the horn. This box behaves very well in every respect. The negative is that it’s a bit big and heavy and used a proprietary HF horn flare. [/QUOTE]
