DefinitelyOk so Fender ran out and put Kustom amp parts for their FR solution?

That's a great link to have!! When it's time to build something similar with a coaxialThe power section is built by Hanser (https://hansermusicgroup.com/), a OEM specializing in pro audio solutions, and it's likely a custom design for Fender.
They also currently own the Kustom brand.

I just noticed that the knob pattern you have there is pretty close to what I ended up just messing with knobs until it sounded the best.View attachment 128139
The band in red is the recommended "flat setting". All eq centered on 5 and with the cut control off ( CCW on 1)
The band in blue is as close as I could get it to a PXM kind of flat using the stock eq. I used these amp settings:
Treble 6
Middle 6.5
Bass 2.5
Cut 1

That’s where my bass knob is but I play jazz so we roll everything off anyway.View attachment 128139

That mic placement will yield a response characteristic that is unrelated to the speaker's response as a player would hear it. Design/tuning tweaks based on the data obtained are as likely to degrade as to improve the speaker's behavior.To get a mic placement well inside the convergance of the speaker, horn, and ports
I plotted the waveguide and cone angles, and went with 12" out from the grille . 4 3/4 down and 6 1/2 in from the right side
My services have not been engaged to take data on this product. Nonetheless, I gave you a bit of pro advice for free. If you're not able to acquire accurate loudspeaker response data, you're wasting your time trying to make adjustments to same.Thanks!
Feel free to post your measurements.
Correct; you based design decisions on inaccurate data, in violation of one of the underlying tenets of good engineering practice.I designed an entire eq around mine
With the power amp and your uber-EQ all that is needed is a box and drivers. A new biz venture or a cool open-source project.That's a great link to have!! When it's time to build something similar with a coaxial
Lemme get this straight: you really want to fault me for that? Given the woeful lack of actual factory support - one of the main reasons for my choice to disengage from Atomic several years back - most folks would see it as a good thing that someone who actually knows about the design is willing to provide support.43 posts mostly about troubleshooting the CLR .
My "several audio products" include quite a few successful loudspeakers.
For one, the IMAX Proportional Point Source.Which ones?
