In Reply to: Scan-Speak Revelator 9900/9500, 18w/8545, 18w/8546 and a Transmission line MTM... posted by kocho on July 26, 2000 at 05:27:30:
I am using an MTM with 8545's and the 9300 based around the North Creek Rhythm design. The circuit topography you posted was for the Rhythm design. I bought a license along with a very nice "kit" of instruction pamphlets from George for the Rhythm XO ($20.00). I believe he is still selling it. Definetly worth the price! I also bought the critical parts from him (series inductors and caps). I was sold on the 8545's by George @ N.C. and Dave @ Meniscus over the 8546 specifically on the low-end extension. The low-end response of these drivers is excellent! I have not heard the 8546 but I get the impression ( I think North Creek even has something on the web site) that it has superior mid-range response to the 8545. George does mention that he'll usually mate the 8546 to tubed equipment and the 8545 to SS. I'm sure you already noticed that neither of these designs could be considered very efficiant at around 86-87 db so you won't be "shakin the windows" driving them with the Zen.
