Separate names with a comma.
Well I haven't directly compared the 12 and 15 in a strictly MBM roll though I do suspect their qualities will be similar with the 15 certainly...
For music I would go Vortex rather then HTM. The HT/HTM have a slightly drier sound that is better suited for home theater and lack the bass...
I'd use the sealed version for home theater, often there isn't much need for extension below 60hz which it provides sealed as an 80hz crossover is...
I decided to go with I-core inductors in the updated HTM-12 because the lower DCR gave the response shape I wanted and was more efficient then...
The HTM-12 is a more premium option to the HT-12, it uses higher quality drivers and more advanced crossover design to give the speaker a smoother...
That sounds about right. Let me know how it turns out as both the 12 and 15 were voiced in the larger tower cabinets and I'm interested in...
Yes, that resistor is in series and therefor a lower value will result in more output from the tweeter. That said 3.9 Ohms will be almost...
Added crossover boards to my eBay page, you can find the Nexus PCBs and others here:...
Updated crossover board photo to reflect latest design and added link to crossover boards I have for sale.
PCB's for this design posted on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/283815380748
The 15" radiation pattern is more narrow then the 12" below the crossover point but that more narrow pattern just happens to match up to the...
You can use the Vortex-12 in a sealed box in the 1.0 - 1.5cuft range if you don't mind the f3 being around 100-110hz which seems like it should...
If anyone was interested in the PCBs for these I did get more made up for both the MT/MTM and the Center/Tower designs. I also had some PCB made...
If you are using some kind or room correction in your AVR it's not worth worrying about as that should help fix any issues that arise there.
The HT-8 would be better for that listening distance, minimum I'd be is around 3-4' away. I'd probably want to be at least 6 feet minimum from...
Eminence 18" woofer, Celestion 8" midrange Same Celestion compression driver as the 615LX. 99dB / 2.83v 8 Ohms. 350/1700hz crossover points. In...
There is very little difference between the HT-8 and HTM-8, this is partly why the smaller HTMs have been phased out. Voicing on the HT series is...
You can get away with either. If you are building them in a tower enclosure similar to my prototype enclosures I discovered there is a quarter...
You don't have to use denim, you can use polyfil or acoustic foam. It is however necessary to use some kind of damping material prevent the sound...
HTM-12 update. The HTM-12 is going to be getting some changes. The new model wll be switching to a Celestion compression driver. It will also...
