Scott,

I do not particularly like many of the ideas that you presented in here and, in my view, some of your movements you are planning are faulty. Your dissatisfaction of the Edgarhorns upper-bass is too wide-ranging and not well-interpreted by you properly. You are trying to build a new system with “attention is focused on the region below 200hz” but you forget that sound below 200Hz is 50% of your room. Where are the assurances that your dissatisfaction is from the Edgarhorns midbass but not from the specifics of your room?  You said “I plan to get an RTA to help integrate the new horn.” Good but prevented you to get it 5 years back – I think it is how long you are being frustrated with new Edgarhorns upper-bass.

To replace two 80–500Hz and 500Hz -10k channel with 3 channels of 70 Hz -240Hz, 240Hz -1200Hz and 1200Hz -10K is a very good idea of cause. Do not be too bind to the specific crossover points you identified, there is many reasons why you might not be able to him them.

I do not know Scott – something does not feel to me in this idea as sensible. Too much project management and too little expression of the sonic specific. Anyhow, I wish you good luck…. Post your observations about the sound of your 'driver x', about the sound of the Faital M5N12-80   and about the sound of B&C 8PE21.
