small bookshelf driver selection and box recommendations

Hi, I need to build myself a nice small set of speakers for my room this year. I'm going to drive them with a NAD or Adcom intergrated at about 35-50wpc. I'm looking for a 6.5 and 1" tweeter. I've been checking out Morel, Vifa, Scan-speak etc. My main question though has to do with enclosure design. Are there any drivers that will do particularly well sealed? Or am I much better off going ported? There will be no sub, as of right now, and this is going to be used for music and movies off my computer mostly. Also, one last thing, when I design the boxes, do I seperate the tweeter and mid into sperate chambers?

Thanks
Bob

Hi Bob,

I suggest you follow a plan or kit. No need to do the heavy lifting yourself. There are plenty of designs out there for any combination of drivers.

Or google the drivers you are interested in.
