It will effectively replace the output of the port, with way more headroom and performance, and of course no port noises. I can omit the Linkwitz transform and low-pass filter, and push the woofer way less. Not that I need or use the extra output, these things are terrifying when turned up. The only time I have pushed them I wore earplugs because of the SPL.I haven't had a chance to get through your linked threads yet... could you briefly talk about the goal of the extra woofer? is it additional output, lower bass extension, both? Does that affect the integration of the waveguide at crossover? (guessing no since it's a 2.5 way and one woofer probably isn't active during the crossover from the top end?)
thanks!
And yes, the lower woofer is rolled off low, so change to integration with the D2.
Also, they should look completely badass:
Subjectively, how can this not sound good?
I have configured a single (with the two bass cabinets), and it sounded great. I hope to start posting some actual measurements, the ones in the build thread were compromised by the size of my shop and mic too close for a large speaker. I am going to try to up my measurement game...
