I didn't keep up with whatever threads which that was featured but noticed from DJK's hornresp sim a mouth of 22.5" by 22.5". I'd assume a clamshell arrangement in the back chamber. How would it do on the top end? Was there a sketch of the throats?
oh - - found a thread - -Basically it appears to be about the size of Peavey's FH1 and the speaker in push-pull arrangement. The "top" woofer's front cone in DJK's drawing below is coupled to a back chamber via paths above and below the "ramps" while the rear of the "top" speaker's cone is feeding the horn.
The top woofer's magnet sits a bit into the cone space of the lower woofer.
is the top woofer sharing the bottom woofer;s back chamber? - or is the top woofer's back
chamber just the volume under and over the ramps plus whatever is tacked onto the back of the enclosure?

I would _think_ that the top woofer's rear volume is the volume under and over the ramps, etc.
If I'm understanding the configuration correctly, I think that makes sense.
I may be visualizing the spaces incorrectly...
Hmm, upon further reading I may have misunderstood the design a bit.
From the thread quotes you posted:
"The rear chamber of the top driver also needs to be the same volume as the triangular chamber of the bottom one."
"The area between the ramps will connect the back volumes of both drivers."
Are the 'ramps' the small triangles in each upper corner of the image?
