Dear GC

thanks for your comments and explications.

mouth watering finish.

what is that ?

I am still hesitant to goe from the beginning to the push/pull principle, as it makes te cabinet more complex to be built.
I feel more confortable to make first a cabinet wich hopefully will be sonically close to the bd15. If i can reach this, the result probably will be fine.

the size seems to me now be very reasonable, not too big, not too small.

You are up against Mother Nature here with a displacement between the DB 15's and the Orpheans of, was it, 60 cm's?

it's 45cm.

I do not want to get in to filter building, as i have no experience at all with that. I am intend to use the filters from Bert.

Choice of materials:

Let my just here express my hate to MDF and alikes. MDF sounds very dull and swallow all harmonics from the unavoidable resonating cabinet. Add it's own dust/glue caracter, which is awefull.

I do not have many choices. I will have to go with what is possible to make the cabinet curved. But i will brace it internally, to avoid resonances. The way it is shaped, it should already avoid standing waves.
