This project is done and the results are very pleasing indeed! I love the industrial looks of these speakers, with the exposed compression driver and horn. The two small 4inch Dayton Audio woofers perform extremely well for such small drivers, with plenty of low-end punch. The B&C compression driver and horn provides smooth and non-fatiguing mid-range and high frequencies. The tuning of these speakers are relatively flat with a slight droop in the mid-range.
These are dynamic and punchy, but never loses control of the music.
