Its a Tempered Quarter Wave Tube Type to which I beleave you are familiar. mh-audio Tapered Quarter Wave Tube

The element is a slightly modded Beyma 15XA38Nd. Dustcover removed, skweeker horn filled with angelhair and foam. The H.F membrane is a CP755NdAl aluminium instead of original titanum. All part plausible to cause ringings has been coated with various sniffable solutions. Also some angelhair in the compression chamber.

As you know it was made for stage monitors where other qualities may be prefered. In an apartment they are slightly to detailed and dominant in the top as original to my taste.

And buggers to x-over, but Im starting to be happy. Unmatched in 3d experience to my knowledge. I can tell where the vilolinist is sitting letting a noiceless fart out.
