So this took forever:
Sorry for the crappy phone photos. Will update at some point. Still don't have crossovers or backs on them! So I have just turned them on with only the full range 3" woofer so far.
They sound great lol ! I am still getting good response at 110Hz without the backs on, so I am positive they will dig more than deep enough when complete. I don't know if they will open up more with the tweeter arrays going, but I have noticed the sound is definitely best mid array. Sounds good above or below, but great at that mid point and boy does the sound carry through the house.
I also swear they are not nearly as loud as I thought they would be. Maybe because there is less/no distortion. Not sure. I have tripled checked the wiring. Going to get them sealed up tomorrow. Hopefully get crossovers by the end of the week. Then I just need an AV Receiver and my TT's lol.

Thanks for the replies. Just note I will never build another set like this!
It just takes so damn long to drill and sand and screw amd wire and everything.

Is this design part of the TLAH plans?
