Speaker alignment on 250 Ti

[rek50]

A "Logical Way" may be to establish a single point of reference (the center line of the top driver) and plot the location of the other drivers from this point of reference. An imaginary center line (top driver) from top to bottom (of the cabinet). The other drivers will be X down from the center of the top driver and R or L, X amount, from the center line, of the top driver.

Someone can check this - it's from a 20 year old drawing.

Where has all the time gone...

Well, as I recall, if you draw a horizontal line through the center of each of the top three drivers, the midpoint of each line will coincide with the center of each of the three drivers. Another way to say it is that the top three drivers are centered on the baffle, determined by the width of the baffle at the horizontal hall-way line of the driver.

I think the placement is different for the woofer, however.

Ah, now Giskard posts the drawings.

Hi Gerard,
You are absolutely right!
Just put a slightly higher set of cones under 1 side if you want 90 degree vertical- but, is it important?

I am on the process to build my 250 Ti clones
Now I have a problem on how to place the 4 speakers as they do not seem to be centered on the front panel .

it looks like there is an axis with a 95° angle from the base that I could follow but I am not sure .

May be someone can help ? .

regards

hello 250ionly.

I am not sure I understood what you mean ... My english is not as good as yours , let's talk french next time .

In fact with the giskard drawing , I measure a 94° angle and you can get a straight line goint right thru the center of each speaker !!!.
There should be a reason why but I do not know it ?

If it is important for me ? : Yes otherwyse I should not be on this forum talking about things most people do not care at all ....
