CLS: Exactly, I´ve seen and heard Petters multicells IRL and that inspired me to build a pair myself. The construction techniques are pretty much the same but mine are much smaller, the wood I had was pre-cut in 12x12" squares. Drivers are Eminence PSD2002.
The SP12B drivers sound quite good in OB but I´m looking for something bigger. The MkI version used AcoustoPro 15" drivers that in some aspects sounded better (and worse in others). Dual SP12B per channel would be nice also but those drivers seem quite rare in my country.

>>> I did not hear anything that would give me an incentive to investigate such drivers or to re-evaluate what I am doing. I was quite surprised to hear the retail prices of around $48,000 for the Feastrex pair and $4,400 for the Lowther pair.
Some may despise fancy mushrooms in an expensive restaurant preferring instead more normal mushrooms on a burger with onions, cheese perhaps. Heck, i just really enjoyed a bowl of Chinese wanton soup and it came free with my meal costing $6.50. A small market will appreciate the time, workmanship, materials and sound of these way too expensive drivers i suppose. But i can't help but believe some might prefer the new TB driver or Fostex among others.
I have begun my open baffle project finally and expect to make progress in the weeks to come.
On a side note, from behind the Feastrex resemble erect nipples. Seeing Nelson's head in the picture spoils the thrill for me.

Nearly finished. I was actually listening to just the Visatons last night as I do not have the amp up and running for the bass yet. Still, sounded great al the same, and I am sure that they will sound brilliant!
Two Visaton B200 projects not yet mentioned.
The NoBox BB
And an Y baffle design, with B200 on top and 3 WS25e's for the bass

Erik! Hi! I hope you like the new home for the Visaton's I got from you? ^^^
How are the 206's? OK I hope?

What a 
Please forgive my ignorance. What will happen if the magnet power is so high as to exceed saturation?
Its a field coil. No magnet. Lots of copper though. 7 miles of it. Weighed a ton. Ran hot. Used external DC FC supply. Sounded good.
I know. (and, it's still a 'magnet', isn't it?)
I should've said, what will happen if the input power to the field coil keep growing?

Does this qualify?
It's semi-OB on the mids, dipole on highs, monopole on bass.
I modified the C/O and interior cabinet, so its semi-DIY also.
