For the design of the box i used the recommendation of part express site Optimum Cabinet Size for sealed box and the help of .BassBox 6 Pro. The box made from 19mm birch ( all sides) and glued together. the drivers are flush mounted. the desing plan made with the help of sketchup program.
Enclosure Assembly:
The design plan I sent to a Langer who prepared a CNC machine plan.
Crossover Design:
I chose to go Bi- Amp so i ordered 4X QUAD 405 clone amp kits ( Class AB ) from ebay. for the crossover i chose a 4th order linkwitz riley active crossover that i ordered from Elliott Sound Products and added to all this , speaker protection kit ( as well from ebay )
Conclusion:
happy to say that for my first project i get better result than i expected. compare them in pro studio acoustic environment with YAMAHA NS10M and got overall good feedbacks from the house technicians. made some measurements ( frequency response graphs included)
