I am thinking about undertaking a line array project. I have a set of Infinity IRS Beta's where the L-Emim's are no longer functional, and replacements are no longer available. I want to build a pair of panels to replace the originals using the Bohlender Graebener Neo10 Planar Transducer and the Aurum Cantus G1 Ribbon Tweeter, OR, the Bohlender Graebener Neo3-PDR Open Back Planar Tweeter, in a line array configuration. Can I please get some feedback as to whether or not these are a good choice of transducers and could someone point me in the right direction to do some research on crossover design and line array configuration. I am also trying to simplify the system by going with a 3-way configuration instead of the original 5-way Beta design...and similar to the IRS V's. I also understand the cost involved in this project and have taken that into consideration.
Will necessitate a crossover modification.
Unless the frequency response, SPL, and resistance of the BG ribbons match that of the Infinity panels, you're going to need a crossover re-design to accommodate the change. Crossover design is a combination science and skill. Not something you can learn over night. As a start check out the free design programs on Jeff Bagby's site.

Before getting too far into a project like that, you might want to contact eBay seller magicmarksy (Michael Alan Marks) directly.
Besides having quite a lot of nice Infinity equipment for sale, he also offers rebuilding services on drivers, as well as good used components from time to time.
You can find his direct contact information in his ads.
In the past I have seen him offer some pretty amazing modified Infinity speakers, including RS1s, Deltas, Gammas, Betas and MK5s.
There is also a fellow named Bill Legall that was also into Infinity driver repair, years ago I had a chance to pick up some of his repaired / matched emims for spares.
Google search lists him as working for Millersound, but I am not sure if he still offers that service.
