Trying to come-up with a great two-way & found out that Parts-Express.com makes a replacement 15" driver for the Realistic Mach One. I sold the Mach one when I worked for RS a long time ago...Now we combine the two particular loudspeakers from the past & create something very different.
Running the numbers for the 15" 'Mach One'.....I just knew it was going to be ideal for sealed systems.& I got 34.92 for EBP.........right in the range for sealed. That was to be expected as the original was a mere Twenty five or so inches high, maybe seventeen inches wide & only...say Fourteen inches deep.
So when I crunched the numbers for the "perfect" .707 I came up with 20.35 cubic feet......How did they squeeze it down so far? Pushing towards 1.0 Qtc way under-damped. So I would have a enclosure 26" wide,32" deep,41" High. Trying for the narrow Mega-tower look. With the Heil mounted on top,I could set it 'back' on the enclosure trying to correct any phase shifting.
The cross-over will be tricky as the overlap is very narrow.
Any ideas???????????
