    Ive used 4.7uf or 10uf to one driver and 0.47 or 0.82 to the other. I also use like 5-10 ohms in series before the caps to even out the...

    12mm @3mmOD. You can use a series resistor before the cap to lower volume of each 2389 driver in the 2389D config. 5-10ohms usually helps.

    In this config, if the black squares are caps, the top driver is connected with a 2nd order crossover (12dB/oct), this might not be the...

    Common designs only feature RC circuits. No inductors are used.

    Yes and no. BA’s are incredibly inductive. Hence, not using inductors as passive components. They same can not really be said for...

    without touching the vent, you can adjust resistor and decrease caps values on woofer LPF (and adjust damper if needed). then try hi...

    Venting out of the shell will cause a considerable loss of sub frequency when using BAs. In practice, Ive never had much success...
