I was sitting listening to a pair of $20 headphones, listening to thier suprising sound quality. I got this idea:
What if I were to purchase a large amount of headphone-type drivers and make array speakers out of them? I would get reasonably good volume levels with large amounts of the drivers, and they tend to be very accurate. I would probably make dipoles and just cut the high frequencies 6db to yield fairly linear response down to the point where I'd xo to a monopole subwoofer.
This could be an inexpensive design, and although rather odd, might yield suprisingly good results.
Thoughts? Problems?
