"Drivers: One carbon-poly 6.5" woofer-midrange, and one 1" magnesium alloy dome tweeter"
"The front baffle is angled backwards to time-align the drivers by placing the acoustic center of the tweeter behind that of the woofer. This also helps to match the sensitivity of the woofer (88dB) with that of the tweeter (91dB) without the use of a resistive pad. The tweeter is crossed over at 3kHz using a single capacitor, and that’s it; there are no other passive components in the signal path."
"the woofer, a modified Peerless by Tymphany 6.5″ unit," <= (830874 ?)
A different dust cap? It looks like a ring of something on the dust cap.
"The tweeter is a SEAS H-1212 1″ aluminum/magnesium alloy dome modified to Watkins’ specs."

Trio Brio Clone Plans Post #178
Just by playing with C-C distance and phase, I was able to get the flattest response I've ever had or seen for a setup without active EQ, passive notches nor even BSC, and only one capacitor in the whole signal.
Clean, clear and detailed...
Measurements and pictures here:
Need help building open baffle/bass reflex hybrid
"For fun, I tried to wire the drivers out of phase, no cap.
And finally again out of phase, with the cap."

I just revisited the TC9 in the Nola clone, and I finally got it right.Just by playing with C-C distance and phase, I was able to get the flattest response I've ever had or seen for a setup without active EQ, passive notches nor even BSC, and only one capacitor in the whole signal.
