About the Designer
- Conclusion -

I would consider this project an astounding success in many terms. The speakers look sharp, sound great, and meet my initial design goals. They do indeed present a very high-fidelity sound that in most situations is comparable to many well-mannered modern bookshelf or two-way designs. The bass is clean, tight, not overemphasized, and only comes into play when called upon by the music. The overall impedance profile remains respectably flat, presenting a healthy 8 ohm or higher load.

Underneath the façade of a demure hi-fispeaker is an impressive ability to play extremely loud. These speakers will easily handle 300 watts per channel and will produce PA-level output. Their full-range sound with strong bass down into the mid-30's holds together well, even at extreme power levels. The clean sound makes these the kind of speakers that will slowly get turned up and up, regardless of how loud they're already playing, until ultimately limited by the amplifier.

In conclusion, these are the perfect speakers for a house party, backyard party, DJ setup, or any situation where high output, strong bass, and a clean sound are needed. And best of all, their ample cone displacement and excursion will allow them to easily handle a loudness button or other "extra bass" setting you may want to throw in for full party effect.
