Hi All,
A very untechnical new member here. But, I love this stuff.
I have a Crites Cornscala b's and love them. After listening for two years, I changed over to Alk's ES 5800 crossovers and switched the mid driver to a DCM50. Absolutely incredible changes. I also added Isoacoustic feet which made a change just as big as the crossovers. If you haven't tried that, what they do to the bass is astounding.
Anyway, as we all hear, the mid horn is a week spot in this design. Is there anything out there that is elliptical that is a drop in without having to cut up Bob's motorboard? I'd love a wooden tractrix horn. Seems like no one makes one that replaces what Bob uses with the same dimensions.
Also, I see that people like the MAHL lenses for the tweeters. Is there a drop in lens of this type that will fit a cornscala b?
I'd hate to carve these up, and I'm committed to the boxes. Just want to max the midrange and treble. I live in Brooklyn. I wonder if anyone near the city works on/builds motorboards nearby, too? That could be another solution.
Thanks for any help you can give the newbie.
Brian
