[QUOTE="Timber_MG, post: 92030, member: 18"] Those Genesis T/S are actually quite usable and 6mm Xmax is decent for a pro 15" (Le is a bit of a shocker though). It'll make for a nice subwoofer, excepting that Vas is a bit on the high side for a home use woofer. Norval, is you Xmax calculation done according to (Hvc - Hg) / 2 ? The Star-sound will have more LF and the Genesis will have more punch. Model the drivers up and see what you prefer. I would cross a Tannoy fairly high, say 120Hz with a bass bin under each. Reducing cone excursion really does help in the midrange at higher levels. Tannoy 15" Dual concentrics usually tend to be around 98dB sensitive with varying BSC (often even adjustable via a rear panel) bringing that figure down. [/QUOTE]
