DIY vs brand speaker

I will take a look, its likely the cabinet will need to change.

The crossover will definately need to change. This DS-215 does look like a good option from the Dayton range.

Hi Andrew, when you simulated the drivers did you get the DS-215 data ?? I read you mentioning an aluminum cone woofer and I am confused. There is one DS-215 and one DA-215. I want to be sure you did it with the DS-215. The DS-215 isn't an aluminum cone woofer. Thank for all your help.

Kind of interesting Troels never had any tall slim designs (actually he might have had one but the design was probably not very optimal). I keep telling him that he needs to improve the look of his designs.

I am almost certain it was the DS215 data I captured (I must have got confused over which driver was the aluminium one). However I am away from home with work in Romania at the moment and all the CAD files are on my home PC. I will be back on Friday and can make sure then. Also I think I sent you the screen grabs I used to input the data so you check on those and compare with the data sheets to see which one I inputted.

He does look for the tall-slim floorstanders.
