what midrange and tweeter for horn loaded

Binkstir · 26th December 2005, 06:25 PM

Im thinking of building a front loaded bass horn using the eminence delta 10" from parts express. I'd like to use the "la scala" configuration to do this and have found plans for it. I am also struggling with the idea of using 12" woofers instead of 10"s. Maybe get deeper bass?
This would be for my living room which is fairly large, maybe 400 square feet. I anyone has any ideas on a better speaker for this, I would like to hear it.

I would love some input on what midrange and tweeter would compliment this system. Later on, I would need help with the crossovers as I am completely flabbergasted at the seeming complexity of this.

This system will be playing a wide variety.... movies, rock and classical guitar.

Thanks so much..

I think I've found an idea for the midrange... with the high fs and low qts, could I hord load this midrange as well?

It is a very effecient speaker though, would it get too loud before I ever got any bass?

OK, the above link WAS not the right one for the speaker I was talking about using for a midrange. Here is the one I'm thinking of using.
