I have a pair of those woofers, never thought they were anything special compared to Seas L26, etc...
I'll sell you mine for a good price if you still would like to try them.Really? [emoji45] I was all set on buying a pair in a month or so.
The low crossover point and shallow crossover slope help with off axis.a bit confused about the 1.6KHz LR2. Seems really low/shallow, wont the tweeter distortions be high at loud levels?
Also the 6" satori can go higher, ofcourse beaming and c2c start limiting that

Viva a good LR4 with magnesium mid and LR4 with the tweeter as well ! But it's forbidden to mix the sponsors
At 1600 Hz the Seas could be a good match according Zaph measurement : https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.c...xcel-w18ex-001-e0017-7-magnesium-cone-woofer/
After the Sophia SB semi clone, perhaps a Sophia-Seas half cloned, hey ! (at the price of LR4 instead LR2) !
Btw al quadratto Sophia Scan Speak Sister with a Be in the high, a Revelator coated below should be an alternativ...
More and more the OBL-15 seems pretty to me in a dedicated room, although yet a little to low efficienty ! Zaph measured a low 91 dB efficienty with the old 8" Jantzen.... (he measure at 1 W, not 2.83 sensivity ?)
It is a pretty robust tweeter, but there's no way to know without listening and measuring.Agree Face. but i was wondering what that is doing to the distortions produced by the tweeter at high SPL
Seas W12CY and SS Air Circ together sound very good.I have an LR4 between Seas magnesium W15CY and Seas T25CF001. I have to say i have heard better.

It looks a lot like what Jeff Bagby did with Kairos and later added 10" woofer. Drivers are the same, xover topology is almost the same, even the front baffle tilt is at the same angle.
