    Building around LE14A woofers

    I´ve just bought a pair of LE14A woofers and L94 lenses.
    I have the opportunity thanks to a nice LHF members to purchase the following items:
    077 or 2405 UHF, 2426J or 2404H drivers, 2370A or 2312 horns, N333 or 3133 Xovers.

    What items will match better with the LE14A for building a two or three ways system?
    Otherwise, what items are missing?

    Thanks a lot.

    Zilch...How did that stacking the original enclosure on top of a base to expand the volume work out?...

    Very well.

    It adds ~1 cuft. to the S99 volume and moves LE14A into the low range of where it can do what I does best, and lowering the crossover frequency using the waveguide relieves it of duty pushing its limits at the high end.

    Full range two-ways are a challenge of compromises, and this is a better one than the stock Athena, in my view. It's also attractive as a tower with the HF axis up at listening height.

    I'm further suggesting that 2426J on the $9.90 PT waveguide may be a better option than 2370A, for example, as Mr. Widget and I discovered in this forum several years ago....

    What is "PT waveguide"?
    I think 2426J is 16 ohm and LE14A 8 ohm. What network?

    ********

    This has morphed into a DIY thread, and should probably be moved there.

    Also, it'd be good if this one were reopened, by my view:
