Yes, the WSX are also copies. There are many design plans for the WSX. I had the boxes made by a specialized company that made many of them, the speakers are RCF 18LP300 that fit perfectly

I had never heard of Peter Morris, I did a search on the web and I did not find a personal site where to find the design plans. I searched the forum and found several products, but not something done and finished. How difficult do you think the production of these boxes would be? We read that the configuration is very difficult to make them sound good, even if the yield is statospheric (how is it possible with only 2x12 "to make 100-20K Hz?). There are many plans of RCF 4PRO, specific components to use and the configurations are ready


If you searched correctly you would have found tons of information.

Including which drivers can be used, and also their correct processing. Nowhere is said that it is very hard to get them sounding right. If you want the best of the cab it will become more difficult because you need the correct FIR processing. 


PS: it doesn't only have two 12" drivers. The whole cab is mainly designed around the coax HF driver. You can use a 4" VC HF driver laike the RCF ND950 but you don't get the same result. If you go for the PM60 you can use two boxes aside (which would be loud).

The W8 are not bad at all, but in Italy it is not found on second hand. I would prefer to build them, there is no mention of W8 anywhere on the web. As for the H3 / H3 + I already have how to configure the cuts, earnings etc.

Do some reading and make some of the DIY designs that fit your needs (dispersion, ability to use in multiples etc) or just buy second hand.

You don’t want multiple H3s a side. (In the average room).

You're right, it has become almost like an obsession to recreate that design and those characteristics of that speaker. The charm of the hybrid, which is reminiscent of the WSX design. The speakers would be paired with the WSX

Okay, but going back to the starting speech. What would you recommend between RCF 4PRO 6001 and Martin Audio H3? I am afraid that the opening of the RCF 80 ° x 60 ° is too wide and dispersive
