Thanks bdp24.   I subscribe to Danny’s channel on YouTube.  I’m most intrigued by his subwoofers, actually.

Child Damage Mitigation
Congrats!I've got two toddlers.  If there's a way to move your audio system into a different room, I suggest you do.  There's no controlling little ones when they're just starting to move around--they are just too young to understand right/wrong/d... 
Super tweeter for FullRange Driver
Those are nice full range drivers and you have a good amount invested in them. If it were me I would consider getting something like the Dayton Omnimic system to test your design.  Danny at GR Research did a video on adding a super tweeter to a fu...
