Danny,

I was curious if you have a design coming along using the Neo 8 driver.  I am considering selling my Neo 2's and starting something larger (3-5 driver floorstander) and thought the Neo 8 may make a good midrange unit.

It really only has a good place using lots of them in a line source.

As a mid it can only play down to about 1kHz or so using a single one. But the Neo 3 pdr can already be crossed as low as 1.8kHz. So adding it in there doesn't give you much, but uses a lot more parts.

BG has a speaker that places a Neo 8 on either side of a Neo 3 (positioned horizontally) like an MTM.  Any reason to chase that idea; maybe with two woofers (6.5"-8") at the bottom of the tower?

I don't see good reason to.
