I have been known to tune speakers BY EAR and BY HAND. Many of the speakers i hear arent even tuned right. The instrument I use are the ears on my head. Yes you basically throw a bunch of parts together and see what happens. That is how its done by everybody. There is no cookbook that tells you exactly what parts to use. Active tuning is easier for me. I dont like having to build and take apart components repeatedly.
Its basically the same thing. An enclosure of the size and weight i suggested would be a house or bigger.
If you are looking for state of the art sound there are no shortcuts.
I will not disclose details about my own designs as they are proprietary.

Now don’t get me wrong. I am all for mass loading. But 307 TONS!?!?!Whats wrong with that? Airplanes weigh a lot. So do rockets. We can not only build them but we can make them fly.Its not rocket science.
Lastly, I’m surprised that you aren’t more willing to share your extremely high quality speakers with the rest of the worldIt seems that most of you are happy with what is already available on the market. Theres no point in having something even better if you cant appreciate it.
you just throw random value caps, coils and resistors at the crossover and then cross your fingers and hope it works? Do you then take measurements and adjust accordingly? If so, what instruments do you use to test and measure your speakers? Are they calibrated and used correctly and if so, do you have documentation stating that; we deserve to see this if so!

how does a completely open baffle design where you cut out the siding in your house and mount your off the shelf driver in your wall compare to your 8 feet thick concrete sidewall enclosure design?

I was asking you which materials worked best in YOUR designs, you know, like the ones you built in reality
