Sonnie,

I think we can probably work something out here. I'm not sure if the Pulsars will meet your needs or not. First I'd need to know what size room you have and if it's sealed off from the rest of the house. A satin black finish would be possible also, although a bit more work than a veneered finish.

Also, the Pulsars in their current form are ported but they really sound better sealed and crossed over to a sub. I've currently got the ones from the website in my bedroom and have the ports plugged. They don't extend as low, but they sound better. Depending on the size of your room I think you might be better off with a similar design but using larger drivers. Also, the Pulsars have pretty good efficiency for their small driver size so they're really meant to be paired with moderately powered receivers and amps. The little 3" drivers don't have a lot of excursion so multiples were used to keep efficiency up and keep the excursion per driver down. I think larger drivers in an array could possibly be a better option for you. I just want to make sure that with big subs that the speakers aren't the limiting factor in the system if at all possible.

I think an array of the Dayton 5" or 6" drivers would be an excellent choice. They could be an MTMWWWW for the towers and a WWMTMWW for the center. I've never designed a dipole surround so that'd be a new undertaking, but not impossible.

We'll definitely work something out though! Let me know what you think of what I've posted and we'll go from there.
