so i spent ~$200 making the cabs for nothing?!!

You have the AN12, is that correct?
Vas is much smaller on the AN12 don't worry. It is actually almost perfect for the AN12
what songs by who and how is it better ?
Every type of music under the sun.
Here is a summary of AN15
Classical = F!@#%$#% sensational
Diana Krall = Unf@!!#%#@% believable (or should it be F!@#$!%$ unbelievable)
Jamiroquai = Can't f!%#@!%$@% stop dancing
Seas
Boring, turn it off

Hey Dave
Why does the Onken not need BSC?
Dpn't know about Onkens. Somepeopleadd BSC to my boxes. We don't. Whether you need in on the Aniken10n is one of the reasons it is in beta. The Aniken10cf needs some sort of EQ per its 1st beta, but that is as much the rising response of the driver as anything else.

how about Nero - doomsday ? Stravinsky - the rite of spring ? Ozric tentacles - Plant music ?

Yeah, no worries Dave.
I'm not expecting miracles. Touch wood it works out well. I don't mind being the guinea pig
DIB = Dumber Is Better?
(one can expect anything from you)
Correct
Here is the response
The blue is DIB
I think I can remove the suckout at 180 Hz
I'll measure it again against the wall
I'll make up some longer ports.

Melon,
I think my final setup will look like a Emerald Physics cs2.3 with AN15 on top. I have been reading about the port they have in front of their two woofers. Any ideas about what they are doing. I think it acts like a Venturi.
Isn't it just another version of a slot loaded open baffle?
Sounds like slot loaded open baffle to me.
"By loading his woofer fronts but not their backs into short port lookalikes on the front baffle, Clayton broadens effective baffle width and also claims to gain 4dB of frontal output above 40Hz. This minimizes equalization boost and bass amp power demands"

You'll significantly increase the load, with the usual characteristics entailed. Just watch that you don't go too far with the load on the bass driver (and make sure they actually are bass drivers, not large wideband units low-passed) since taken to extremes, you're likely to distort the cone & ultimately destroy the driver.
FWIW, I suggest you read up on horn theory (which also applies to Nelson's slot-loaded type); preferably back-loaded, and compression type design, paying particular attention to throat sizing.

Dont know honestly. Will be as enough to try.
If you want to load them in the same manner as Nelson (1/3 speaker cone area) then 8" (or 8.5" to be closer) holes is about right

Ordered these on John Busch's recommendation. I will have to paint over the stupid logo.
Thanks for the tips guys. Got MJK's worksheets to play with as well. Gotta go and finish my lateral F6 clone.

The response is not unexpected.
Most boxes, if not all (except .5way designs) need baffle step correction to get a more even flat response.
Hmm, rising on axis response drivers such as this one are designed to be heavily toe'd in with 30-45 deg being common. Also, they typically assume some boundary loading, so wondering what the test listening conditions are.
