Re: Creating a possible 5 speaker system...


Sonnie,

A couple of quick questions:

How tall/wide can you go? Is 60" too high/wide? If so, could 50" work for you? Also, how important is low end extension? The 60"H gives better extension but only when running full range. With an 80Hz crossover it's a moot point. Either way, these two heights still allow for a 8.25"W x 18"D cabinet. It's just a matter of low end extension.

One other thing to think about also. For the front L/R speakers, if we make the towers into WWWMTMW so that only 3 of the woofers are under the MTM array then tweeter height can be lower and in closer proximity to the tweeter height of your center.
