Listen REAL close and see if you can tell where the crossover is.


 


Yes, there is a big hockey stick end to the tenor (that explains the rubber-band 
sound of the low tenor) and here is picture of the upper bass.


 


What is the reason for the extreme nasal and weak tone of the upper bass? I can 
see that the upper bass backscale is  quite short. There is about a 
one-inch-wide cantilever on the bass bridge. But what on earth accounts for SUCH 
a horrible crossover? Is the upper bass too close to the rim?

Wow.

Oh, older George Steck fetal grand.
