Minuet 5B Kit (pair)
The Minuet 5B kit is designed to match the rest of the Minuet
Series and is for the customer who demands extremely high
performance without worrying about the cost to reach this level.  
A pair of these speakers can make up the mains in a 5.1/ 7.1
system or work well on their own in a 2 channel setup.  The
Minuet 5B speaker works well near a wall, as long as the rear
port has room to breathe.  A custom cabinet can also be built if
you need a front firing port.  

Both Revelator drivers are of the very highest quality, and in our
opinion, offer performance to back up the higher costs.  The
mid/bass unit is the Scan Speak 15W4531G, a 5.5” uncoated paper
cone driver with an advanced motor.  This provides a smooth
response, lower harmonic distortion, and improved bass clarity.  
The tweeter is the dynamic sounding Air Circ 6600, which is
extremely popular in the DIY scene because of its excellent low
THD and extended response.  It also features an advanced motor
which allows it to play without strain at reasonable output levels.
This kit is designed to work well in the finished Parts Express       
.75ft3 cabinets with a rear port, although they can also be used in
a sealed enclosure with a higher F3 point.  The optional cabinets
come in a cherry, maple, or black gloss finish.  After the kit is
purchased, the cabinet plans are forwarded to the customer.  The
Minuet 5B crossovers come professionally assembled on a circuit
board. High quality parts are used throughout the parallel
circuits, including film capacitors and air core inductors. The
series tweeter circuit uses metal oxide resistors and Clarity Cap
PX capacitors, while the series woofer circuit uses a low DCR air-
core inductor.  Many options are available for this kit, so be sure
