Yeah I was just generalising about the driver since as you say you tried all sorts of other boxes before this one that failed to perform adequately!

looks wicked!  what driver are you going to use?  did you use the same fold as my drawing or is it modified?  where is the second woofer?  you will need to add supports down the center to keep the panels from vibrating.

those look a lot like my design.   i can't believe the similarity.  do you know how old the pics are?  i am wondering why the triangle cut-outs are there?  makes me feel kinda wierd.  like runing into your twin when thought you didn't have one. 
 
must be prototypes.  with no center brace the panels are going to vibrate really bad.

Hello,
It is better visible on original posted image ..but do you notice those screw-dots on cabinet side. Those suggest that there is horn extension "tail" behind speaker-to-horn  "entrance" . If properly designed this can help to filter out upper bass range from horn output (cancel it by ¼ wave length reflection from blind end) and at low freq. end effectively extend horn path length.. Partially like principe in Danley tapped horns... I may be wrong..

Hmmm.... I think that is obvious in Logs sketch a few post back.
 
Only problem I have with this design is that placement is critical.  The sides (I would think) must remain open.  
What happens if its layed on its side?   I often position LAB subs just below the front edge of the stage in this way.
