I have mine on 18" wide baffles that are 48" high. I think the bass goes to about 100. I supplement w/a 15" Parts Express Infinite Baffle spakers (one per side w/sub amp). This works great and gets me flat to 30hz. I think the size of the baffle is a case of diminishing returns, you'd have to get gigantic before you get to 50 or 60. If you shoot for smaller baffle and accept a higher cutoff, then fill in the bass, it's a great way to go. Check out Hawthorn Audio's Open Baffle stuff for ideas on how to implement this on a smaller baffle. On the question of a tweeter, I use an Arrum Cantus (sic?) to fill in on top. The crossover is 1uf w/L Pad. Works great. I think it's around 97db. I don't put any crossover on the SP12B.
