Noticed the above speakers for sale on ebay today and was considering building something similar. Basic info on the speakers:
- Vifa P17WJ-00-08 6-1/2" woofer
- Morel MDT-20 1-1/8" chambered silk dome tweeter
- 1st order crossed at 3k
- Time coherent design
I'm considering doing a design similar to these... I've already got a number of P17 woofers (picked up a case of them on ebay at a good price) and the Morel tweeter is priced right in the range I was looking. Does anyone have a suggestion on a better tweeter? (tweeter is easy for me to change, woofer is tougher as I already own them!)
I was originally considering a floor standing, but now that I've worked with the equipment I have a bit more, I'm starting to lean towards a smaller design for ease of construction.
Anyone have any thoughts on these for mixed music (40% - mainly music such as Oasis, David Gray, Coldplay, and similar) and home theater (60%) use as front speakers? Room size is approx 14x11 with 8 ft ceilings.
Anyone know of a source for this design or something similar designed for these drivers?
Thanks in advance everyone's input!

i too have a case of Vifa/PSB P17s. Haven't figured out what i'll do with them yet. (Was thinking of a tube friendly WWWWMT using 5 P17s per side) Some of the Morel tweeters get really good press, but this one i'm not familiar with.
The fellow on eBay is not shy about asking some serious money for his work. The cabinets are nice, beyond my skills (but not mu buddy Chris'). I like the little ones better than his big ones.
