Silver Flute 6.5"
i have a set of PE BR-1S (yes shielded), i did the murphyblaster crossover upgrade....
i just ordered a set of Silver Flute 6.5" 8 ohm speakers.... i am looking to swap out the Dayton DC-160S-8 with the silver flutes..... keeping the Dayton DC28F-8 tweeter...... any comments on this combination? I'm putting them in the original BR-1 enclosure i also have a homebuilt Decware Deathbox II 10" sub in between the BR-1s's. anyone else think that the BR-1's are mid -fi at best??? i am hoping the SF 6.5's will be more natural midrange.... it seems the BR-1's just like to be played loud with my Adcom 535II they sure don't sound like my Fulton Tempo's .... anyone else tried to improve the sound of the BR-1S ????

if you google "murphyblaster" (murphyblasterproductions) the first hit will take you to the BR-1 mods...among many others....
this is a start..... there are 2 diffenent xovers, one for BR-1 and one for BR-1S (shielded) i did the BR-1S crossover, i never even listemed to the stock BR-1S crossover

okay
the BR-1S now has the Silver Flute 8 ohm woofer installed. i used a Zobel network consisting of a 9 ohm resistor and an 11 uF cap. the lowpass filter is a .33 mH coil... the highpass filter is an 8.2 uF cap. the sound is outstanding, it BLOWS AWAY the original BR-1S..... all i can say is the SF woofer is outstanding..... i hope this helps some folks out there.

well the xover was not quite right....
i changed it to 2725 hz 6db hp = 10.2 uF lp = .5 mH i am also ordering the seas 27TDFC tweeter to replace the dayton. (the xover will change again) also the Zobel network will be changed to 11 ohms + 12uF i have been following the Double Chamber Reflex (Silver Flute W17RC + Seas 17TDFC) thread for some of these values.... it has been quite helpful.
