does anyone know how to get the plans for the large mar-kens I've really fallen in love with the way they lookI don’t know that this has been released for free public use. As is, it is only a twin driver design but could esily be repurposed for a single driver.
Here are the Mar-Ken of which Chris speaks:
And the ML-TL:

honakerdave,
Send Dave (planet10) an email. AFAIK his PM is turned off, so you will have to reach out over email.

The Alpair 12PW is put to archive section on the Markaudio website, the Markaudio support says it will not be manufactured anymore, a bigger size driver is in the development pipeline. Does anyone have more information about this ?
Thanks.
Thanks.
I'll bet you a dollar Scott knows something, but may not be able to speak publicly about it yet.

He does and he told me (about the A12pw), i have long imagined an A13/14pw, but nothing is known.
A12pw, sadly a great driver underappreciated.

Glad you do -it was a really nice unit.
As far as the 12PW goes, there's nothing commercially sensitive involved -they simply didn't sell well enough to justify further production runs. One of those cases where not enough people really knew it was there, or that it made a good wideband driver (with an FR not unlike the evergreen 755) in its own right.
As for larger units -that's the goal. We've had some good prototypes over the last couple of years as far as performance goes, but they weren't intended as production units, just test-beds to provide various performance & practical commercial data. It's something we're still looking at -but it'll take time.

Indeed, at the risk of monotonous repetition, 2 per side and a mid-tweet well matched for sensitivity can make for a helluva fine MTM.
