Professional PA speaker plans - collection?

[Quza]

Hi!
I'm trying to garner ideas for a small speaker system I want to design and build in February.

At the moment I'm looking around for professional speaker plans to get some inspiration, but I don't find too many.

Maybe you can help to expand that list:

• 18Sound enclosure design
• B&C Speakers - Suggested Designs
• Beyma enclosure designs
• Celestion.com - Cabinet Designs
  
• Speakerplans.com
• hornplans.free.fr/
• Fane - Enclosure Designs
• Bill Woods Designs
• freespeakerplans.com

I'm thinking of building three-way horn tops and subs because of their efficiency, so we can pack a van & trailer, get a small generator and have rave with a few friends (~50) in the middle of nowhere. But like I said this is just collecting ideas and I will probably give in to something more reasonable and easier to build. Expandability is also a concern.

I know my way around CAD, HornResp and some easier speaker simulation programs and want to use this project to learn ABEC3. Yet you rarely see use of that program (or similar) on the web. Most speaker plans don't even have a directivity plot. Am I going into the wrong direction for my purposes?

There is a forum for speaker builders: https://www.diyaudio.com/forums/multi-way/
you'll get some response over there. Or full range forum if you're going to use a single driver.
I buy speakers damaged and repair them with new drivers or crossover parts. Less sawdust in the workroom that way. Sawdust makes me sneeze.

Thanks for the input. I added your suggestions and some more into the list. Now the post is gone - needs to be approved again?


Out of all designs I like the X-Tro the most, but there is a lot of wasted space.
