I did glue a 3/4" thick plywood to the back for thickness, so it is closer to 1" thick now.
I'm hoping the shallower grooves are less detrimental to the FR.
That thought has definitely crossed my mind. I've wanted to do that ever since Ed LaFontaine built the 2 pair of "hay bails" out of OSB.
Step 1- apply a coat of epoxy
Step 2 - apply a second coat of epoxy

Found some wood in the garage that I forgot or didnt know about. Not sure where it came from as I've never used this stuff. I was looking for scrap pieces to build baffle thickness for another pending Versabox baffle and found this stuff. Thought it…
I have noticed instances where Amir says it's a resonance or a difficult capacitive speaker load, and totally called it what it wasn't, or gave an incorrect reasoning for the assumed result. However, call him out and get banned. I've seen that happe…
Looking again, if I may have misunderstood your meaning, Nick, and you meant the 3.5k tweeter bump, I have revisited the simulation since what is seen above and tweaked some values. Since I have yet to take real FR whoops, this will likely change a …

That was with the initial box sim in tow, and a larger box with lower tuning. It won't be there at all since the Versabox volume and tuning simmed above will get utilized.
No listening has been done as yet.

I thought the horn loaded CAT378 tweeter would push the AC rearward enough to get closer to the AC of the deep cone of the NE180-4. Real measurements to follow...
Of note, I will be mocking up another project at roughly the same time. The Acacia bl…
For those wanting Siggy 180s...
These popped up as buyouts. Funny how the Qms is higher more like my measured results.

It does have a max spl with xmax. You have to click the tabs at the bottom for the right model.
I might be able to zip the last software version folder and email it to you. Shoot me a PM.
Treat it visually like downloading a program from the web, in this case microsoft.com, and get it from support or downloads section. It should be in the APPS section on your laptop if you already have it.
I didn't have problems using the USB-C or 3 type (blue) on my last year purchased Asus Tuf with Omnimic V1 running latest software, but the lower standard USB jack gave my T/S and impedance hardware a lot of noise. I ended up purchasing a card reade…
