Romy, it sounds like you've got your heart set on getting LF from your MF drivers in BR boxes.  But perhaps for this to happen you will have to crank up the LF power, anyway.  Maybe this calls for a separate, stuffed "LF" box-in-a-box with a "long throw" servo.

Anyway, if Fs of those little drivers is 80Hz, you might just hate the sound from them below 120 Hz, or even higher.

As I hear it, one of the main ideas of the BR port is to "raise" the low end of a driver a little and at the same time give it some resistance to damp ringing as it approaches Fs  By this I mean to say that IMO it has never been "proper" BR to just "tune" the thing the Hell down there to wring out every last Hz.

Best regards,
Paul S
