Nice to finally see this.

6dB extra? Relative to what?

"...I might let it all to go..."

Meaning that you'd let the mid-bass horns do the work currently done by these other elements?

"...Why don’t you raise the crossover point on your midbass-horn letting it to take over more in upper-bass region?..."

I think you may have misunderstood; the mid-bass horns are still under construction. I was describing the void I hear in their absence. The plan has always been to let the mid-bass horns run from 90 to around 240Hz. Once they are up and running, I will of course try pushing the low end lower, but I'm not "officially" counting on them for anything under 90Hz.

"...Are your midbass and upper-bass channels in phase acoustically? Can you post in your thread the separate sweeps at the same volume level of:
1) upper-bass
2) midbass
3) combined midbass and upper-bass in phase.
4) combined midbass and upper-bass out of phase..."

I'll be happy to post the requested sweeps once the mid-bass horns are in place.
