i have been toying with the idea of full range. and for about 100 i might as well have a go!!
not only is wilmslow audio up the road, but icon audio is about the same distance the other way!!
it's time for me to audition and pick some brains
thanks
Well I think the Fostex reflex cab & drivers should be easy to build, but if you're more confident, the horn/reflex hybrid looks interesting and I would expect it to sound & project better. From what I've read and heard expect them to be very directional though. Build both and let us know how they compare!

I wouldn't expect it to be in the same class as the Lowther based Icon speakers, but I think these would be far to sensitive with a 10watt amp in your situation

. I priced the Fostex horn unit out at under £150. I was thinking of building these to use with a 2A3 based SET amp with a max output of about 3 watts, my room is 18' x 11'. How about going much more mainstream and audition a pair of Kef iQ1's (88db/w) and the uni-Q driver will give great imaging in a small room. To quote from the add "....a rich, expansive soundscape in a smaller room without compromising sonic accuracy...." I've got to say in your situation I'd probably go down this route, have a look see. Can you set the output of the amp for 4ohms as these dip quite low?
