3Way - Beyma ribbon, 18 sound woofer and (?) midrange

[SOVA audio]

Hello, guys!

I'm planning a 3-way speaker with a ribbon twiter. I've chosen Beyma TPL 150.
And 18 Sound 12W500 as a woofer.

Could you help me to chose a midrange driver?

And what do you think about such a project?

If this is a high output design, FaitalPro makes a number of suitable mid/mid-woofers with significantly high output capabilities.



Otherwise, if you aren't looking to shake the house down, ScanSpeak makes some excellent mids and mid woofers.

My listening room is 30 sq. meters. And I dont' want to ruin my house, of course 🙂

There are many possible choices. 6.5" prosound mids from all the reputable European manufacturers will work. Crossover around 350hz and 2khz.

This BMS is one of the best.

Will this be an active system?

Thank you for the recommendation.
I'm planning to build a passive system.
MDF enclosure.

Faital Pro 10PR410 is a perfect match with Beyma TPL-150H. Faital Pro 8PR155 is also another good choice but lacks some dBs. Beyma 12P80NDV2 is also a very nice driver if you can get along with beaming issues

This one looks like a woofer

it's actually a midbass/midrange. it's a very good piece of speaker

For this midrange size we need a bigger woofer.
15 or even 18 inches

Woof woof, now you're talking.
You can't play real bass with 12" (isn't that a midrange?) 😀

You are right, but a size of the enclosure does matter.

Actually, I want to start with a digital Accuphase crossover and three amps. Once I found the good filter parameters for all drivers, I will move to the next step - passive crossover.

18sound 6ND430 4ohm should keep up with your woofer once you factor in baffle step compensation. If running active, 8ohm version is probably better (lower distortion from your amp).

Guys, what do you think about enclosure material?
MDF or plywood?

Beyma has arrived

I'm planning to build a passive system. .

Would like to see the crossover be like, any different designing between the Beyma vs a CD?

What do you mean? What is CD?

I just started using the 8 ohm version and really lie it. I also just switched to the Wavecor TW030 for a so far so good sensitivity match. An effortless transparent combo.
