monsieur le zilch- i am guessing some JBL woofers and a pair of cheap ass wave guides with some compression drivers will be living in there soon, mais non?

If you search AK for "velcro", you will find some ideas to fix that missing piece.

Woofer hole's 11", too big for 10" 127H-1, even.

A "Squircle" 12" would go, but first pair of those I come across are going in the AR1s here.

EconoWave can be made to fit, but I think I'm gonna do 18-Sound elliptical with BMS in these.... :thmbsp:

Are you talking about the one at 70 Hz or 3 kHz?

It's the hole at 2 kHz needs primary attention, as I see it.

Recap, maybe? I'll try that, but first, other measurements in "stock" condition.
