stage ... 3?
If anyone still remember my line arry project, here's some news! The "bass feet" are finished and installed!
As you can see in the pictures, I still use a single dome tweeter, temporarily mounted in the top of the array (not the best placement, I know).
The sealed bass cabinets are made out of very heavy duty glass fibre/epoxy tubes and pine woodboards. The 8" MGR woofers (MGR F-2008W) face downwards.
The speakers are "tri-amped", and a dcx2496 is used for filtering and level adjustments.
Despite all their questionable design solutions, I must say I'm very very satisfied with their sound so far!
Next stage will be the tweeters. Either DIY magnetostatic ribbons, or arrays of dome tweeters. I haven't decided...

Tweeters!
One and a half hear later, I have taken another step in this project!
I was on my way with the magnetostatic ribbons, and even got the magnets, but yesterday I just couldn't help myself from buying a box of 200 tweeters from PE! :

I know this is a bit of a faulty choice, but stubborn as I am, I will still give it a try. These little tweeters have an FS of 4200 Hz which is too high for my 83mm C-C midwoofer spacing.
Any advice on how I should deal with this? What will be worse, running the tweeters down to below Fs or running the midwoofers up to over comb-filtering freqencies? (I will of course try both settings on the filter, but a theoretical discussion is always interesting)
