One thing that Tom Ewars (Big E) hipped me to. Even a single driver is crossfiring. The two horn-ports effectively cross fire with the single driver. At least up to 4k.
Keep in mind I play in a metal/hard-core band - most likely it won't be practical (or safe) but I know he'll like the idea.
I had worship service practice at my church this evening so I showed it to my drummer and his eyes lit up. It was funny to think about how that would work live in the other band setting as he has a huge Mapex set and I'd have to squeeze behind him with my fiver. Lol....
Nice! Do you know who the other players are? Gene Krupa -- first encountered him as a send-up in some cartoon when I was a kid. Can't find it now. Something Warner Bros.? Anyway, cool version -- thanks for posting!

My BigE home stereo speakers should arrive today... 
46/26, giving me some flexibility for small, medium, large. Talked to the Zen master and that's what we came up with. Was gonna do the standard 45/110, but this seems to be a better fit.

46/26 sounds like a great idea and a great sounding rig. That would be next on my list!
I've got to say, I've had my Flex Mod210 mostly sitting idle since I've received it, as I've been living in an apartment in a different part of the state for the last few months with no gigs, but am getting ready to move back to Asheville and have a handful of gigs on the books and hoping to get back to my steady schedule. Can't wait to fire up the 210 mod, it's killing me having it just sit!

Actually a full-on Big E stereo. I think that Leland is doing it. Duke will be doing Big E high end stereo speakers but Leland is doing the initial prototyping. As I'm not at all involved commercially with the home audio stuff I feel that I can say---they make astounding home hifi speakers.
I saw some pages with the Event Horizon 210 of Duke's, looked like a home version of the 210 Flex. I was under the impression that Leland was handling PA and home theater Big E designs.

Yep, from Leland. Just picked 'em up at Fedex. Won't get home with them until tonite. But man, the box for the sub is BIG.
