Nothing in this price-range?????
It isnt a MUST that it has to be Accuton drivers, but im in LOVE with Marten Colrane 2. And if there was a kit with Accuton drivers, then I could tweek the design more to what Coltrane 2 looks like.
For example this speaker:
and then designed a Coltrane 2-design and for example split the loudspeaker in 2, like this speaker in the picture. See?

Im thinking of something like this:
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
Theres a very similar speaker using those Accuton drivers on Humble again. It's called Humble Statement
Go active. All the stuff shown so far has passive crossovers. Go active. Either design and build the boxes yourself, or just design them (it's not hard) and have someone build them for you. Have some of the crew here design the boxes for you if you don't want to do it. Then buy or build the active crossovers and all the amplifiers you need to run it. For really high end, you can easily end up with a system that costs 10 grand. A "kit" seems silly to me since it's just assembling the parts. Why bother? Design it yourself or have someone here do it. Pay someone to make the boxes if you can't or don't want to.
I have built the Dynabel Euforia from scratch before, and love it!
So I will ofcourse build the new ones myself to!!!
I soldered the x-over on Euforia,
but I dont know how to build one from scratch on my own.
Therefor I need a kit or HOW-TO-drawings for a high-end kit.
Someone who have built some of Humble`s speakers anywhere?
I want to design the speakers myself with the needed liter of air the speaker demands, if that is the most important thing?
I spoke to Humble about Humble Statement,
but it wasnt his best speaker he said. But he just updated with a new designed x-over that should have more air in the tweeter and more bass.
But he cant test it, because he has sold the speaker.. What to do?

10000$ is too much money for a high end DIY kit. A fraction is sufficient, 4000$
See with Troels Gravesen ?
He can help you and we could have an article on this project ?

Sorry I was confused with the flags, Norway and Denmark, very similar.
Yes it's better to build a 3 ways. The magnesium driver have a fabulous midbass, the best I have heard.

Well, I was thinking of the 11" Accuton and maybe the diamond-tweeter,
so its gonna cost.
And yes, I`ve heard the MID Accuton is among the best!But who can help me achive a Coltrane 2 clone!?
I have though of Orions a looong time, but I dont like the design at all.
And that is also a very critical thing for me!
This looks like your clone right here
I know, but he uses a cheap tweeter and 8" bass,
that is not enough air-movement. Coltrane 2 ---> 11" and four of them!
They are probably the best kits you will find though. It's fun spending your money. Keep it up!
