Thanks Rudolf! Great data, Im still trying to understand the implications of that rear pattern.
On that particular driver it's almost so temping to match it with neo3!

That is where I saw this progressing, 3" and neo3, so I would be interested in any builds that go such a way or ideas that are put forth. The photo shows the top of my current PLLXO active four-ways. I do not have measuring equipment unfortunately, nor much expertise, so cannot feedback much.
Neo3 dipole
Monacor ms100-chq (need to bring this forward on the mount I expect for time alignment)
Monacor sp8/150pro
dual Alpha 15s

it's great to see another no baffle audio friend.. I'll never go back personally.. try looking into doing a rear motor mounted phase plug...
Crazy speaker - that enclosure is amazing.
Just my $.02 - I don't see much difference in polar response between a 3" and 4" driver. In fact the 4" may have a more open rear basket, and more volume displacement...

Rear motor mounted phase plug? I never heard that idea before. Can it make a worthwhile difference? Since the motor is vented in the centre that might cause problems?
Although at this point I suspect my non-ideal room causes bigger problems than the gains of further improved polar response will bring.
That Monacor is 4" I believe.

I may have misunderstood "rear motor mounted phase plug". I thought trusound was describing a plug mounted on the back of the motor to assist rear polar response. Since trusound shows speakers with a forward facing plug I should have guessed.
Anyway, the picture shows my DIY pine wood phase plugs on my B200s which I originally had in place. They sometimes slip in the mount unfortunately and rub the driver making a slight sound which alerts me. I need to resolve that. Two screws in the back hanging on by magnetic force alone is not enough it seems.
