There's a line array AMT design crossover at 125Hz from Arion.
You can see if you scroll down to the photo of the rear of the speaker, it's a bunch of AMT's in a U baffle.
Do you all think this is some custom AMT, or that you can just push any AMTs that low when you have 10 of them and active EQ?

AMTs run out of steam below 500hz or so because they can’t move that much air as was said. Put 10 together and they can but you’ll be throwing away the gained efficiency on the high end. The array will be seriously top heavy unless the xo is designed to roll off the upper range. As AMTs go very low the distortion increases too. Best to use them 750 and up.
Thanks for the guidance! Found a note from the owner of Arion they build or customize the AMT's. LM10N would be great, except for beaming in the top end.
Yeah but their amt also beam same way lol beaming is a matter of size you could ways put a smaller amt at ear high and solve that issue easily.
I have a custom 5.2 surround sound system built by Paul Squillo, featuring AMTs built by Jack Smiley that crossover at 500 Hz. It took two years to get the last two drivers for my system, and Jack has since downsized to a much smaller home and apparently retired from making drivers. I absolutely love the sound of these drivers, and I'd love to make a line array with 9 of them per side, but they're no longer available. How would I go about having these drivers recreated? Are there any shops that could make small batches of them?
Alex: Would you kindly PM me with Jack's current [?] contact info... have inherited several of his AMTs and am seeking any/all tech info
Thanks!
Thanks!
You'd have to ask Paul Squillo; I don't know the guy. Paul's website is https://www.goldenearsinc.com/
