A new "How To Build" guide is available for my Eclipse project. It is based on Troels' Poor Man's Strad. I know, I know...I need to post measurement info. Working on that but wanted to get this out in the event someone was considering a project like this and might benefit from the work.
I would post the file but it is way to large...a 57 page PDF. It can be downloaded from my website at Kaya Sound DIY Speaker How-To Build Assemble Design and here's the final project image:

A couple of positives that I can see. The driver locations and the cabinet rounding. These appear to address problems that large baffles can have, and permit the benefits that large baffles offer.
I'll go ahead and read your paper, thanks murph.

An acoustic solution in the lower midrange is worthwhile. If the baffle step started higher, there would be more rear energy challenging successful room placement. Response smoothness is responsible in this region for tactile feel in music and weighting of voices and instruments.
I've recently been playing around with some large cheap speakers 39cm across and there's a lot to be said for what they can do versus a much higher quality but tiny 2way standmount.
