Nice! So you basically have the Calibre XD Studio Custom! That one sports a different midbass driver up-front as opposed to the more traditional bass driver in the passive Calibre. I had seen pics of it a few months ago and asked Bill about it, which is when he told me that is the Studio version. I suspect that this driver is cleaner in the midbass-midrange since it has less bass duties to worry about. The front driver in the regular Calibre is more of a bass driver as it sees pretty much all bass duties simultaneously as the bass driver on top. I've gotten that thing moving quite a bit listening to metal with the bass boosted. I would love to see them with the grills off though. I can't fathom how two 8" woofers would even fit with the recessed cut-outs, let alone anything larger than an 8" passive radiator up top! They must have redesigned quite a bit--the top grill looks to be the same size as mine. How in the world did they fit a PR larger than 8" up there?!?!
