Tax,

do not go over yourself with “building paranoia”, looking for drivers, horns, boxes and etc. If you are looking for 80Hz to 200Hz range (you will need higher upper knee for AG Dou) then you do not need a bass driver with Resonance frequency of 35Hz and 8mm excursion. Your initial question was meaningful and purposeful; your last one was not.

You do not need to ask me how to design your playback – your playback is your business and how to navigate your playback's improvements is the subject of your own mind. I did not suggest building ported box, horn or anything else. I said that you would be better to have an extras channels then another amplifier.  If you wish to do it then do it but get assistance from somewhere else. I do not offer assistance in DIY efforts, unless the DIY efforts are properly mentally structured. I do offer my assistance in THINKING about the conceptual problems of playback. Now you need to do your own homework and to teach yourself how do not now listen any “recommendations” but to develop own way to evaluate your own progress.

Please, do not take it personally but you are stepping in the realm where I have no interest.

Thanks Romy!

Those PHL drivers were available locally and I know that someone had tried them with a pair of Trios. A local speaker builder mentioned that they could be used, hence my question.

Your post has had the desired effect and I am doing some more research into Fane Studio 8M, 16 Ohm drivers in a 4 inch throated horn tuned to 115Hz with the intention of crossing it from 70Hz to 500Hz . This may be similar to what is used in the Trio.

No further response on your part is necessary.

Kind regards
Tax
