New project around the LE14A woofers
Hi, I´ve got a nice pair of LE14A woofers so I´m thinking to spend some time in a new project by using them
I would like to replicate a real speaker model that fitted them so no waste time because the crossover is already designed :D
What speaker models fitted them and what mid/tweeter would match better? I know the Lancer series but any with three ways?
Kind Regards
LE14 as basis for threeway

Apart from 4 way L250, I would consider N112 in a slightly larger box, maybe 60 or 70l, tuned mid thirties. That crossover is used for LE10 in L96 and 128H in L112 and L150, each near 14A's sensitivity, and the crossover includes variable attenuation for an LE5(even) and 044 (you may have this or 066). I tried this with good results, also with 104 and 035

Someone may vouch for mix and match

20uF and 2.6mH on the bottom and the HF circuit with an added L-pad from L200t3.
Measures +/- 3dB across the spectrum and I've been listening to them for three weeks straight while my 4430s take a much-needed break. Nice
No one, myself included) would vouch for a mix and match combo, but I did measure, adjust values and ask questions to get these results
The wonderful LE14A was matched with LE 20 in L99 and LE 175DLH in 101, and those two ways were limited solutions for bandwidth. Later JBL mid/high transducer pairs coupled to 10 and 12" exhibited better performance in FR and smoothness. The crossovers of L96 and L112 illustrate the efficacy of bass matching, so it can be a good starting place for do it yourself system building. As to mix and match 2way, and similar to turnitdown's 2417 solution, why not use 14A with 2344 horn (with 2425h) and n3134 to emulate 4430?
