I'm toying with different enclosure designs and came up with an elliptical enclosure with a minimal protruding baffle. Are there any inherent reflection/diffraction issues with an ellipse when the voice coils are outside the actual ellipse?
It's a CNC cut sandwich design, so I've got a lot of freedom regarding bracing and just about anything else. I have a feeling the alternating "spikes" will help even if their size is random, but it'd be a lot easier to leave them out.
I'll be running digital crossovers and room correction/equalizing on a dedicated PC, so it'll be relatively simple to correct for baffle step an all that, but internal reflections are still a bad thing...
