Possibly with the ultimate disperson/response/baffle step thing, but then again , it is a musical instrument speaker system. Goals chamge.

Curious as to crossover points/slopes, etc. but more the goal of the thing aside from weight. Close range listening? Room projection? Big stage blowing at the mic position? Some of each?

Also, in addition to being a good, clear speaker:..it has to sound good doing some "less than pure", dirty stuff...as you know.

Carbon fiber layup over foam? Looks awesome. Not looking for trade secrets---I've already looked into carbon fiber but there's no way I could do it without charging money that would insure that I wouldn't sell any. My feelings were that with an epoxy/glass layup with a foam core that the weight savings with carbon fiber were small. Now if you're laying up over a form that's a different story. Which is something way above my pay grade!

I'm also located in Nashville and I'd love to take a crack at that thing. I've got a gig next weekend in a good sized room if you wanted to do a little listening.......

I think that since CF can be formed to any shape, we should definitely see a resurgence of "tuck and roll" cabs. You could also mix some glitter into the epoxy.
