Hi Jelle,

Welcome to the forum!

1. configuration of the Hypex filter settings

Very important

2. improving bass output (Hypex filter settings and maybe box in the open baffle.

Huh? 2x 15" per channel does not give enough output? Must be something in your settings, or you just play way too loud (neigbours complaining)...

I use OB for a while now myself and boxing them will be the worst for the quality of your setup.

I have a bit of an odd setup at this time, my source goes into the plate amp (one each site), then the plate amp first amplified channel is for one bass speaker, the second amplified channel is for the second bass speaker, and i use the subwoofer not amplified channel to go to the the tube amplifier, which drives the full range in the Oris 150 horn.

Indeed, weird...

Why not bypass the whole plate amp in this configuration? Source directly to the tube amp and from the output of the tube amp to the input of the Hypex?

A simple passive Xover for the Lowther will clear up a lot of issues as well and still protecting it very efficient for too much cone movement.

Cheers,

Bert
