Did we mention this amazing clone of a DeVore Orangutan o/96?

That's it, crossover wise... 3.9uF and 2.7R plus 15R attenuator on the Morel Cat 378 tweeter. :D

Auris Poison 3 for post#31

Auris Audio Poison 3 – HiFi Knights

from above Auris Poison 3,"Design-The unorthodox appearance comes from the narrow front baffle with a single fullrange driver (sourced from Fountek) placed close to the top of the speaker, bass woofer (from Peerless) placed on the side but also in the upper half of the baffle, and a tiny tweeter (from Tang Band) placed on the rear. The woofer works up to 300Hz where Fountek takes over up to 17kHz and the tweeter on the rear works from 7kHz to 22kHz. The crossover, as you can see on one of the photos, features high quality components sourced from Mundorf...."

Highs 3.3 ohm Res, 2.2 uf Cap, .12 mH Coil, 1.5 uf Cap to tweeter TangBand 13-1761s 3rd order butterworth.
