Hello,
I would like to show you a project I'm just working on. It started with an idea for bass improvement and eventually turned into a design of an entire system.
The subs are already made but not tested for possible improvements. Firstly I have to build the monitor units which contain the amps (Hypex FA 253).
The monitor driver will be Sica 5.5 C 1.5 CP. The sub driver is Peerless by Tymphany SLS-P830669
The concept aims to improve my current monitoring capabilities in my studio of 5x5 meter in near field range by moderate room level.
Usually I use monitors on stands with a distance of 1m to the front wall. So I will build the speakers into stands. The stand will also contain the amp, which makes a free positioning of the subwoofers more convenient. The subwoofers can also stand within the bottom area of the stand for listening in midfield and to blend into the design of pseudo single speaker.

The enclosures are already made now. Today I added a stiffening frame into the enclosure to avoid resonance.
The stand/side cover consist of two layers. The inside layers have grooves for the wires from the amp compartment into the enclosure.
I'm waiting for the amps to check out on which position to access the wires.
I could need some recommendations for further damping measurements. It's a 4 Liter sealed enclosure.

Unorthodox design... so will be interesting to see how it turns out 👍😉
I love the concept, especially the choice of drivers. This system should sound exceptional for its cost if intended driver bandwidth is chosen carefully. The Sica coax is a fabulous driver, capable of exceptional linearity and off axis performance. Looking forward to the progress on this...
