Anyone working on THX type LCR speakers. I am looking at building some LCR's modeled on the M&K 150's, Klispch 650's, Snell XA2900's. As far as i can tell M&K used allot of Vifa drivers, Klispch used OEM /Hifi drivers, any one know what drivers Snell used?

THX, EC

What are the THX specs again?

Off the top of my head I was thinking something along these lines.
90db 1w/1m
80-20khz

Is there anything else I'm missing, because if not, it won't take much to achieve those results.:huh:

The specs are not all made public, but wide horizontal dispersion with minimized virticle dispersion,

Hmm, ribbon tweeters.

high power halding
With a high sensitivity, would the high power handling be necessary?


and 12db/octave natural roll off below 80hz should get your sufficiently close in terms of design. Meeting those specs and building something that sounds good is the challenge
So, some sealed 6's could accomplish a 2nd order rolloff at 80hz. Mini line array style?

Although, I have a photo of a high end studio (might be Skywalker Sound - will have to check tomorrow) using S150, and just one of the front three has a different foam arrangement.

My sister's good friend, Sascha from http://www.sonicmayhem.com/ took a few pictures while he was at Skywalker. The studio monitors in the pictures I saw were B&W 802's. I'm sure they have more than one studio though.
