[QUOTE="Art Welter, post: 219028, member: 52"] Peter hasn't checked in in a long time, but I can answer your questions. Yes, the PM-A60 goes louder than a JBL SRX 835 with less distortion. No. No, typical HF drivers won't go down to the crossover point needed for the folded horn 12", around 675Hz. You could use a passive crossover as made by B&C for the mid/VHF crossover, and tri-amp the system from the lows at 80-100Hz, mid up to 675Hz, and mid/high above. You can get (arguably) over 90% of the sonic performance with a good IIR DSP, FIR processing allows low latency flat phase through above ~200-400 Hz and up, which sounds slightly better. And if you aren't a speaker builder, you will find it hard to find one that can save you much money when using premium components. Art [/QUOTE]
