Re: DIY Music/HT Tower design


Back on the subject of the eminence coax's. I'm wondering if i could mount a 1" high sensitivity dome IN FRONT of the cone in it's own housing that tapers to about 1/2" through the center of the cone and thread it to screw into the 1 3/8-18 threaded mount. I have access to a lathe a making a mount out of aluminum wouldn't be too hard. The consensus seems to be that the cone movement adversely effects the output of the tweeter when mounted behind the cone. Any thoughts. I could by the tweeter and driver for leass than $100 so all would not be lost if it didn't work out but i'm still intrigued by the possibilities. I don't have any measuring capabilities but as a former live sound engineer i would like to think i have a trained and capable ear and something tells me that the right dome and xover point is gonna make a real charmer.
