Hello and welcome to AC, obscuredXclouds.  I'm another PNW audiophile over in eastern WA.

Michigan is known for lots of winter clouds too, yet I very successfully operate photo voltaic solar panels thanks in part to a government induced incentive (just got my first bill in 12 months, get back about $400/year, and am on schedule for a 8 year payoff).  Also like small ensemble jazz/classical.

Hi FullRangeMan. I have a 5in Tang Band speaker that I did in a build with a friend. I'll let you know what enclosure design type it was, I forget and he was the designer of it and the crossover network such as it is for a full range design. If I can find those crossovers this WE, you reminded me that I should get them out and play with them.

Seems good news, hope you love them.
I sorry he had to use a crossover.

Many single driver speakers, like other speakers, use baffle step and zobel circuits.  Obviously single driver speakers don't 'cross-over' to another driver (unless you add a helper tweeter or subwoofer).

Baffle step compensates for the output that increases as frequency rises due to waveform size versus front baffle size.

Zobel compensates for rising impedance as frequency rises.

Correct, for increase the bass and tame the treble passively see this topic:
