I like your thinking!Originally Posted by pos
EDIT: If this was not obvious enough, I am just trying to help you find an excuse to buy a pair
I haven't worked on any new DIY projects in over 15 years. I have plans to build a pair of vintage styled L300s in L200 enclosures with a bump out for the 2312 horn. They will be bi or tri-amped, controlled by DSP, and will most certainly not be an ultimate sonic statement, but something I want to do for the fun of it. Since mint 136A/2231As are not in my collection and finding or recreating a pair is extremely remote, I will need to find a suitable woofer. I have a pair of 1501ALs that will likely be put to use in this project.
All that aside, I really like the sound I've heard from the 2216Nd and am thinking I may try a new DIY based on them. Based on the earlier posts in this thread and info from other threads, unless you have a very large room or need exceptional SPLs in the VLF range it seems a pair of 2216Nds will happily get you from the lowest frequency demands of most music to 800Hz.
I think I have found the excuse I needed. Thank you both!
