Hey Gerard - I love the look of your speakers very nice. At some point I could be interested to make a pair of speakers and I do hanker after some open baffle. The only problem for me is that in the past when I have experimented with open baffle I just could not get the bass right. Did you have any problems getting the bass to work? I would be really interested in that aspect and if you had to do anything to mitigate the effect of rear reflections.
The design I have been thinking about is Dick Olsher's BassZilla DIY project which is basically a big box for the bass driver and then a tweeter and super tweeter on open baffle. I would be really interested - does anyone have experience of this speaker? has anyone heard it?

Hey Paul,
Maybe self made was a bit enthusiastic
Fact is that the design is from the manufacturer of the drivers ed.
www.metrum-acoustics.nl As said he is busy with something else but i am sure he can help you a bit. I think the bass is ok but i really have not listened enough to other speakers to say something about it. I am satisfied.
Good luck!!
