MTM using Motus 5" and a Chinese Beryllium tweeter. Should be a pretty good performer based on past experience with the Motus drivers.
Cut the flat packs today, will do glue up later. My least favorite thing so I always seem to find ways to procrastinate.
Picture of the tweeter. Definitely has a DXT vibe to it.
Anyways, going to be at Iowa.
I will be adding a couple smaller braces to tie the top and bottom together.
Is this the Beryllium version of the ceramic in the previous 3ways?
That was also a Be tweeter.
Oops, so second use of the same model then? Shows how much you liked it. ![]()
It’s a different model.
Must be a secret?
They are NLA and so there is no link to them.
Man, you are PROLIFIC. All my designs seem to stop somewhere after the overall design process and often after I start purchasing a few things…then I lose my focus and have another idea to chase.
I have a lot of designs in various stages of development, like you I get distracted and pivot to a different project.
Been too humid here for working in my garage, else these would be all glued up. Waiting for a break. My garage is always 10 degrees warmer than outside which means it is around 95-100 in there. I just sweat too much these days.
Yeah I grin and bear it, Fans all at warp speed.
Heat be damned, glued some more up.
Atta boy
Reminds me of the wrestlers in HS, wearing sweatsuits and working out in the boiler room. Us tennis players just went to the non-local pizza shop with fake IDs…
I feel your pain. And that of those in Europe as well since I cracked a tooth 2 days ago and have a crown scheduled shortly, the summer’s heat came upon us with attendant absurd humidity which killed my central AC system yesterday and has me sleeping in my basement with a 1985 circa window unit for cooling that I have to control temp manually while sleeping upon lawn chair cushions atop one of my narrow wall-mounted workbenches.
I guess it was just time for life’s negativity to snowball at the hottest time possible.
Snowballs, yeah! - go take cold shower in the humid 86* house and run downstairs and freeze under a blanket.
I could be worse, right?

I feel your pain Steve! Had that happen in my last house. Of course being a broke early adult didn’t help. I stapled a blanket over the opening to the dining room to block off the living room. Drug my mattress in and luckily borrowed a window unit from a friend. That lasted months till I could afford to have the central AC fixed.
Yeah, ours took a shit one summer during a streak of 100+ days. It sucked.
