My cabinet design was more a labor of love than some audio project although I'm getting more and more interested in audio now.
I've gone through everything properly now and Paul's work looks amazing ! Hopefully I will get a mic and do some tests post Covid 19. Did Paul suggest restoring your crossovers ? Or was that your decision ? Did you discuss with him the pros and cons of new vs restored crossovers ?

Yes Paul and I did discuss this but I decided mainly for cost reasons for now just to go for a restore of the original xovers. Paul said that a restore would get me mostly there. I do have experience (friend's systems) of Paul's external xovers (driving resp. 12 inch HPDs and 12 inch Golds) and they make nice sounds. But of course their systems are different to mine as well as their room acoustics so can't compare like for like.
I have in mind (probably more a dream) of commissioning cabs for my HPD385s and Paul's external crossovers would be part of that plan (dream) hence my interest in your cabs. BTW which design did you use? Was it one from hilberink?
