I am near the end of a Half Chang build with Fostex 167e drivers. I just need to glue the last side in place, but I’ve been listening to them for several days with the sides clamped on. The drivers are well broken-in, having been used for a few years in a previous design. Still, the mids are a bit too forward-sounding for my tastes – which wasn’t the case when I had the same drivers in ML-TL enclosures.
I’ve never used a BSC. What would be appropriate for the 167e in Half Chang cabs? I’m guessing around 1.5mH and 4-6 ohms based on what I’ve read elsewhere on the forum.

Half Changs
Thanks Scottmoose:
"You could, at the price of needing a wad of correction."
I don't want to do that, and besides, I don't know what to do to make them work with another speaker.
I think I will wait until a design change that will use a speaker that is available before I build any of the Changs.

HalfChang rebuild
Hi all.
This is kind offtopic, but anyway i would like to show, my HC rebuild.
As some of you allready knows, i was never really satisfied with my HC's, so i decided to add something, and this is what it ended like :

Really, this is a lot more the speaker for me now, but i think, it's maybe more, my like, cause a freind of mine, likes the "old" HC, better due to it's topend... ! but its all a matter of taste...
They sound a lot more sparkling, and lifefull to me now !

It's a 207E, the tweeter is some scanspeak.
The stock FE207E, is actually what the HC's are made for. - Remember to let them break in for at least 100+ hour's music playing....
Before i rebuild them, i used a coil / resistor at the input, for giving them a little more bass... but again this is individual taste.
