Well done.
If it pleases YOU then that is all that matters. So, you have made them semi omni ? And what type of cap did you buy for the tweeter ? And have you had to put a padding resistor on the tweeter ?

I used the cap from the tweeter crossover in the linns, no resistor- what’s its effect?
I read on the Richard Allan site that the tweeter is ‘full range’- don’t understand that really so just added the cap.

Re: Cubes diy
Resistor is to reduce the tweeters output relative to the other driver. Only needed if you think the tweeter is too loud.

ADMIN - nasty, 1st strike applied.
EDIT - it should be obvious the content of the post was removed as it was ad hominem and extremely rude to Latteman.

Re: Cubes diy
Those cone tweeters look naff to people with no knowledge but they are surprisingly good, not as extended as a good modern dome tweeter but very sweet and musical.

Re: Cubes diy
When you say extended do you mean the frequency range or the ‘projection/dispersion ‘

Re: Cubes diy
Hi again, I’m just about to install a set of doc modded 8” drivers, I would like some advice on the appropriate approach- I have been testing the wiring of each 8” plus a tweeter (cap only)- i can do it parallel at a total 8ohmn load max or in series at 16ohmn max, is there a preference you recommended using an A20,
I have a separate A20 directly feeding 10” Fane drivers rated at 16ohmn each so thought to match the diy cubes to these?
Cheers

Those Fanes are full range or just Bass boxes?
