Hello,

I would recommend the Dayton audio WT3 from parts express.The other option is the linear x system @ $4500 USD.

Quite, but there are more,

Supposed to be the "original" to the Parts Express "copy", the SL is my personal fav mainly for its reliability and not being prone to its Parts Express counterparts "dead out of box"issue. How did you solve the problems you got with yours in the earlies team-adt?

Hello,

I din't, it turned out to be "dead out the box" lol, on the other hand, I got the linear x (lx500) instead.Alot more than the WT3 ect, but better than the rest thus far.

It would be interesting to see your own plots of the midbass drivers, using your copy of the LX500.

Thanks guys, Freeware ARTA software looks like a try for me, looks simple enough.
I'll still look into getting the WT2, was looking at the WT3 but the "dead out the box" thing throw me off.

ARTA is quite nice actually, give it a try and report back.

Will do, last question:
how do you wire the sub for testing(i.e series, parallel or single)?

Thanks.
