Bipole + Dipole with lineaum flavor!

badman · 18th September 2006, 03:29 PM

Fun project I conceived: 2 way floorstander with the lineaeum tweeter. But given that it's exclusively a supertweeter (unable to play low, not to mention it's quite inefficient), you'd need a low sensitivity wideband midrange to match it... hm.... WR125ST. I have 4 already, as well as the tweeters. Running those bipole full range, and the supertweeters on top, and then we have a nice nearly crossoverless speaker with a very flat nominal 8 ohm load, (cap on tweeter) ripe for subwoofing!

Any thoughts? They'd quite likely find their only service playing surround channels as slender floorstanders

I've been thinking about doing the same with some Audaz 4.5" Aerogels and Lineaums I have. sounds a damn good idea to me, I think the Lineaums may play lower than you give them credit for.

Didn't even realize someone had done a slender floorstander with these, but the lineaum should add a nice touch
