Suggestions on what to do with Thiel / Accuton C82 drivers

Mattias S · 6th June 2006, 04:12 AM

The reason I ask is because I´ll probably get my hands on a pair of these drivers at a really nice price. Brand new also. Since I´m not sure where to begin I was hoping someone could offer some suggestions and advice on a nice design.

This is what I´ve come up with so far, even though I do not presently posses the drivers yet. A small 2 way design. C82 combined with a Seas 27TBFC/G H1212. Perhaps thats to "ordinary" ? Could I go for a TL or is the drivers not suited for that ? Well, many thoughts and ideas but nothing concrete. Please help me get started.

ps. I do have access to a CLIO measuring system when it is time to do some actual building. C82 info - http://www.madisound.com/cgi-bin/ind....1276&pid=1632

I would go straight for a 3 way speaker.
Top would probably be some ribbons of your choice.
The bottom, maybe the peerless xls?

Tony Gee made some speakers with the accuton drivers (not with your exact mid though)
but you can look them up for design theories and maybe some inspirations?
