I checked but there is almost no common components between the 2 and 2.5 way crossovers. It would have been a good option though.

This is exactly what I had in mind too. I was actually contemating how one can make a kind of butterfly valve that you can close with a lever at the back. The reason for this is that I do like the accuracy of the bass of sealed designs but sometimes you have to be able to hear the lower octaves...

Good idea! Btw my room is 6.5x3.5xnormal ceiling height and is quite well treated. So maybe the bass won't be too overbearing. If so, I can probably plug the port.

Thanks for the clarification. One thing that is still strange to me is that if the frequency shows flat when measuring, why would it seem "laid back"? Is it maybe a phenomenon that happens at low volumes, meaning that the frequency response differs at low and higher volumes? It would seem a bit...

What do you mean by "laid back"? And "tweeter working too hard"? Does that mean the transient response is slow or there is a dip in the frequency response or a crossover phasing problem?

Tonteldoos, are you basically saying that the frequency response is not the same when playing at low levels, i. e. the trebly is too soft at low levels? This might be a problem as I monitor at lowish levels.

Ok, standard it will be. Thanks again!

Thanks for the replies! I'm planning to build the 2way for studio use. Still contemplating whether I should go ported or sealed design. Does the crossover differ for ported or sealed? As far as I can gather from the Zaph website they might be the same. The upgrade is on the inductors going...

I plan on building some Zaph ZRT speakers. There was talk of a South African supply crossover somewhere on this forum. Did this ever realise? Also, on the Madisound site there is an upgrade option for the crossover design. How big a difference does this upgrade option make to the sound?
