Need for high quality powered center


Hi everyone,

Just wondering how many A'goners would be interested in a powered center channel to complement their existing system.

Is this a thing, or am I the only one?

I'm asking because I'm having one custom made but could also turn out a small batch if there was an interest.

Best,

Erik

I’m just wondering who’s your target market and what’s your price point (sorry if I just missed this info somewhere)? Knowing you I’d have to think this is a higher-performance — and likely an excellent — product, but at that level people tend to like to match their center speaker and amps so thinking that might be a tough sell so just curious what your thoughts are along these lines. Also, I’d love to see some pix of whatever ya got along with specs, components, etc., and I’d be happy to give you a shoutout to potential customers I happen to find wherever. This seems like a labor of love, and I’m all in on stuff like that!

It looks great!  I love that you use a tweeter over a dedicated midrange as almost all the best centers do IMHO.  I’m no speaker designer, but the best center speakers I’ve ever heard have used that configuration.  If you design a passive version you’ll likely expand your potential market quite a bit.  Just a thought FWIW. 

We could argue that making it bass limited is a limitation, but to me that’s an enabling feature.

Well, it always comes down to trade offs doesn’t it?  I for one think you’ve chosen very wisely.
