Post Subject: Why a different driver for lower and upper midbassPosted by kodomo on: 6/22/2015

Yes, proper upperbass is what I am l longing for. In my current system, folded horn going up to 350hz is not satisfying me and was the starting point of this project. It colors and kind of covers up the sound of big bands and orchestras in the lower registers and is really sounding different/poorer that my tractrix midrange.
I used a different driver, as I think for higher frequencies, 1" is more appropriate than 2". Also 475be-pb has a better response than 850pb in higher registers. I choose the 475's beryllium version for the same reason The two drivers constructions are very similar, and company matches them in some of their pro sound installations. I will need to wait and hear how well
(or not!)
they work together.
Why is 2400hz is a terrible point and with what slope in crossover? Is it because of hearing sensitivity of that region? For which drivers and horns have you tried this and had this result? Still, I would like to hear about your experiences and the reasons why you think it is a terrible point to cross.
