As I ponder buying speakers like the Aerial 10T I can't help wondering if I couldn't take a speaker that I already really like and simply build a lower half and crossover to match...?
The Upper half I want to use is the Mirage MBS-2 speaker. On a stand, I simply love it's sound and imaging for music... but it is badly lacking of all bass. Here are its' specs:
Bipolar satellite/surround. 3rd Order sealed design.
Tweeter 2 x 1" (2.5mm) ferro-fluid cooled Titanium domes. Bass/Mid Drivers 2 x 5 1/2" (14cm) injection molded polypropylene cones. Termination via Butyl surrounds. Frequency Response 80Hz - 20KHz
Sensitivity (Room) 89dB
Crossover Point 3KHz
Nominal Impedence 8 Ohms
Reccommended Amp Power 15 - 125 Watts RMS
What lower half and crossover specs would you use to build the bass base for this speaker? I would prefer that its' driver face forward and the port, if any, face to the rear.
Any ideas???
