You can't expect the MR13P to direct jump to two 12" dipole woofers.
you will likely also purchase the 10" Faital 10FE200 or Dayton Audio PA255-8 for a 3-way dipole baffle.

The Faital looks smoother, theres a decent dip in the Dayton. 10inch is kind of big for a "mid" the have 8 inch models that might fill the gap.

Maybe this one could do the trick : Tang Band W8-1772 8" Neodymium Full Range Driver
If you expect - 3 dB bafle step in home environment instead - 6 dB because the help of the nearest side & front walls even at more than 1 meter, you can deal with 92 dB sensivity from your 300 to .... the fountek with a higher XO for this last ! Although a little boost could help in the baflle step area or a RL correction (coil//resistor in serie) if passive on the Tang Band ?
You stay 3 way and can even test 2 ways configuration with this driver, XMax at 3 mm is maybe enough !
Why not try to XO the Founteq where the C2C is less important if you use a FR: very high at > 8 K Hz (look at some designs like the ZU Audio line with some XO at 12 KhZ with a FR below !
But if OT, why do you think fellows about the best XO for a mid-bass OB driver ? 180 Hz à la T. Gravsen classic OB or more 300 to 800 Hz with a 12" without bafle (and no boost) ? It helps also to decide te thrade off with the upper drivers, no ?

Hi all, I will be on/off the board as we have had a death in the family. I tried simming the peerless 830883, SB 13P and fountek neo x 3.
They dont sim nice at all. I used PCD. Fountek only provides Fr to 1khz which seems to be a problem. Note I am using SPL traces and not actuals. my XO points were 1.2 and 3.5k. Ill try to figure a way to zip the frd/zma files. Also I guess I should be using actual measurements for each driver on the baffle?
