I have the 8b's. Wings, interesting.
Please PM me as I would be interested in your approach.
Kind of an infinite baffle?

Thanks,
Brian

BTW the 8s' cleanliness and transparency will increase substantially* if you remove... - jeffreybehr 15:14:15 12/11/09 (0)
...and replace with a wire the large composite-electrolytic-and-small-film cap that acts as a high-pass filter for the MR and treble. (IOW, ALL the MR and treble flows thru and is contaminated by that cap.) Search for my posts in the planar-speaker Asylum for details.

* enough so that THIS tin-eared audiofool could easily hear it.

Yup, DIY 'baffles' to increase the lower-MR/upper-bass energy. - jeffreybehr 23:09:55 12/09/09 (0)
The pair, finished.

In process.

Drove the MR/treble with ASL Hurricanes in triode and the bassboxes with 2 channels of an Outlaw 770 filtered by a Dahlquist DQLP-1.

The winged 8s worked just finely, but I finally tired of their treble hardness/edginess and built my own, those big ugly OBLAs.

E-mail me at jeffreybehr(at)cox(dot)net and I'll send you more pics.
