OK, here's my idea after few months of thinking about :roll:
I was forced to think about because i was very happy with my new studio soffits, but found that my Tannoy AMS8's sounds weak in the new environment. And another reason is that I'm limited with depth of soffits to about 35-40cm and there is no so much competitors in main studio monitors to fit in that tray...
Initial idea was to avoid crossover much as possible, so i started from some extended range driver in the middle, crossed with woofers as low is possible and tweeter high enough, depending on the mid driver possibilities. All drivers will be sealed to avoid delay group.
Here is list of drivers I'm thinking about. Hope that will figure the right ones soon "with a little help of my friends"
Middle- Visaton B200
Fostex FE208 sigma (not in production anymore, but i have pair available )
maybe CSS-FR125 in diapolito but seems impossible because they are rated for some 30W and have 86db of sense :cry
For sub bass i decided to go sealed as I mentioned before and not bigger than 12inch, so pair of them on both side. Low-passed around 100hz 12db/oct active.
Not so much drivers to go deep enough sealed so, i have just two of them.
HI-VI 10.8
Peerless 830845
For tweeters there is lot of them like Scan speak Revelator, an will found some depending from mid driver sensitivity. ( will be nice to cross them passive, hope around 5-10khz)
Huh! That's it :wink:
Will be happy to hear all comments about
BTW, here's pic of my studio with flush mounted Tannoy's.
Happy new year :guinness:
