As I said already, I'm in the process of building a version of the punisher and X-TRO
My X-tro will be built using the folowing components: P-audio WN-15S - midbass B&C 8PE21 - mid Selenium D3300Ti DPD Selenium HL-14-50 Horn I will build 2 units My Punishers will be built using: P-audio SD-12 woofer I will build 4 units today I fired up the drivers coupled to the horns, and I really think the X-tro will rip my head off the Frequency plot looks like this for the drivers coupled to the horns (actual measurement @ 7.5W): for a 2" driver, it really can't get better than this I'll post pics every time I make something new Edited by Mircea Bartic - 28 February 2007 at 5:39am |

Do you need a 2" which will go below 1kHz if you're using an 8"
mid? Thought the idea of the X-tro 8" was to get high enough to
be able to use a 1" on top?

I will use this system mainly for outdoor gigs, so I think a 2" is a good choice (I have a bad habbit of blowing HF drivers)
anyway , I had the d3300 lying around so I thought why not I want to cross them @ 2Khz so I'll have some really nasty unbreakable HF |

Fair enough. Let us know how it sounds of course!
I'm having compression driver crossover issues at the moment. I really love the sound of the DE25/DE250 drivers I have but finding something to go below a 1" which will play high enough cleanly seems to be difficult. It's really spoiling what would be otherwise lovely sounding boxes to have some annoying dips at 1kHz and 3kHz. On a completely different note I've been eyeing up the PD 12SB30 as a driver for the punisher or similar. How far off are you with the SD12 loaded versions? |

Can you post the input data for that please? Link to the punisher
plans seems to be broken atm so I can't find out the dimensions.
PD only has 400WRMS handling but I'd imagine can take a fair bit more in a horn. |

@coner: It's the actual link to the schematic jpeg that seems to be broken, I can find the punisher page.
@Nexus3: Thanks for that. I'm wondering whether I can modify the design into a reverse mounted driver BP-horn. Will keep playing...... |

This is just a rough idea that i have had. It should make the cab more arrayable. I dont think it will affect the sound but will make some awkward angles to cut. What do you think |
