Using 2 full range drivers per side

[planet10]

With the castle the usual issues are avoided by firing 1 driver at the ceiling which keeps the HF from combing.

I had under/over 2 x 4" tang band bamboos.
It was called the derringer.
I used pennies to get them level at the listening seat.

It is a toss up.
I think 2 x smaller drivers are better than larger drivers with whizzers, and better lateral dispersion (2x4") than a 6" full range driver.

2 x 4" can cost more than a 6", and the Fs is usually higher than a 6".

But, 2 x 4" sounded better / cleaner than 1 driver (less distortion).

I'd never do it again though...............

What did you do instead?

Ancient Jordan-Watts speakers. Twin full range, bass reflex tunnel vent, plenty bass, comb filtering not huge issue.

The current Jordan Aurora 800 enclosure and the DCR DIY design uses two Eikona drivers run wide band with no problems heard here or reported from builders.

What'd i do ?
Built a 4 driver focused array, then a 9 driver focused array.

I'm Still all over the place. Fane 12" full range driver using home theater receiver and sub, or double 15" and big horn. Waiting for a dual 12" fane. Tempted to try 6db capped tweet with my 6.5" silver flutes (collecting dust).

Good luck.
I can say don't make your box dimensions squarish, I try for golden ratios now.
