The slapshot design by curt campbell.


I see the crossover is shown now, and the price dropped to zero.
6db tweet (but flattening the 2-6hz lift from the horn), and 12db woofs.

I've been interested in the morel cat378 for a while.

I'm not a fan of mtm's, but liked my rca lineaum mtms.

Seen some posts saying the 6.5" (132cm2) paper (and kevlar and fiberglass) is similar sound to the aluminum but easier to work with. I stll can't figure out how it is a low distortion motor. It's overhung without split coil, shorting ring, or even copper cap on the pole piece.

Maybe a tmm as a center channel under a tv.
Foam or felt around tweeter for diffraction control, 1ft3 tune around 50hz for f3 around there.

Havn't seen much about them except by geoff millar on diff forums.

I'm very interrested.........


Gowa, ever build it or sell your parts you had for sale back in 2014 ?

I don't have any parts left for those. I built a set for a friend. I'm also not much of a fan of MTM's. All I can say is that Slapshot MTM is way better than it should be and surprised the heck out of me. My friend loves them.
