Thought you Zerogainers now Audiosmilers might like to see this... Having been 3 way for several months now and liking the conicals, a recnt listening session at Mr Coco's, hearing his 4 ways and ideas for improving things has lead to itchy DIY fingers... The plan is to add a pair of JBL 2482's Phenolic diaphragms. So a recap of the setup:- Was 15" Eminence Kappa pro LFII's will run ~20Hz crossing over at 1000Hz in the GRF cabs. JBL 2435 Be's 1000Hz to 10KHz Eminence horn tweeters coming in at ~9K upwards. Planned 15" Eminence Kappa pro LFII's will run ~20Hz crossing over at 350Hz in the GRF cabs. JBL 2482's will run 350Hz crossing at 1250Hz. JBL 2435 Be's will run 1250Hz to 10KHz Eminence horn tweeters coming in at ~9K upwards. A pair of working but shabby 2482's arrived last night. They need a bit of a clean up / restoration. The planned crossover components also arrived (band pass inductors were short by one so I could only test fire one side so far). Some pics Beast of a compression driver 2" throat (short horn adapter came with them (I won't use with the planned conicals). A pair made a heavy parcel along with those throat adapters.

Here's a shot of the current crossover calcs.

Progress updates to come.
