Shaded Array - Twelve 3” Full Range drivers with 35Hz-25KHz & high output

FAST ( FullRange assisted Subwoofer speaker)
if I were making a FAST, which I have thought about, my first choice for a full range driver would be the tang band 1337 4 inch titanium:

I would use it in dipole configuration.

There are a couple of peaks in the treble that you’ll probably want to tame with DSP, and I would add a rear mounted tweeter. That will alleviate some of the 1337’s beaminess in the top 1-2 octaves.

I previously used it in a 60Hz back loaded horn and was very happy with it. This driver has incredible micro dynamics and is extremely detailed.
 
They are 3” drivers.

My god!! @P10 How is that nit picking important?
”Thye” should be ”They”.
By the way it’s more like a 2.73” driver 😝

Very cool design. A LOT of science and thought behandling these.
I like the more science less snake oil approach. 👍🏻⭐️
Refreshing!
@P10 Dont you think?
