Hi Danny and Crew,
Danny, I called you a couple of days ago about a potential MTM project I was thinking of buying. I went ahead and purchased everything and here is what I now have:
-- 3/4" MDF cabinets with routed holes for a MTM design. dimensions: 17.5" tall by 14.5" deep by 8" wide. Looks like they don't have removable baffle and they come with magnetic screens.
-- a pair of morel tweeters. the label is removed, but one online source identified them as mdt33s. I have photos that I can send to get a second opinion, but probably I should get them measured locally to confirm that they are actually mdt33s. Anyway, for now, I'll assume that they are morel mdt33s.
-- a pair of audax aerogel hm130z0 5.25" mid woofers.
I plan to keep the tweeters and sell the audax or use them for a different project later on.
here are a couple of quick questions:
Am I locked into an MTM design or could I explore a TM or even 3 way design here? (I don't plan to use a sub for some time.)
can you recommend a design and components that would work with these morels?
my goal is to significantly beat the Boston CR77 bookshelf speakers I own and even beat the B&W CM1 speakers that I wish I could afford.
my budget to complete this project (woofers, crossover, back plate etc) is up to $400.
thanks for any help!
Steve
