I'm really wanting some striped bell bottoms.

Second coat of finish. I still have rack rails to install, to hold the gear. The holes are vents, which will get black mesh behind them.

Bohlander-Graebner ribbon super tweeters and Dayton Audio full range drivers, both from Parts Express. Luvdunhill did all the calculations for interior volume, port and he built the crossovers. They sound amazing! I liked the way I grooved the Cherry baffles, so decided to make the new rack a similar look. There's a little more about the speaker build on pages 13 and 14 of this thread.

That's sweet Nate! As for me... I'm planning on getting back into vinyl, so I purchased a Parasound Zphono USB. I can also digitize any albums I might want to. But that left me with a dilemma, as the rack I built for My Parasound Z stack won't fit any more gear. So today I built a new rack to accommodate all seven Z units. It's in the first coat of finish, and I still need to attach the rack mounting hardware, but it might just resemble the speakers I built about 2 years back. Pics within a few days.

Some of those leftovers, plus the addition of some Bourbon/Bacon sausage, made for an amazing lunch!

shouldn't you eat them instead?

You guys are crazy and certainly not trying to help this poor guy. The obvious answer here is the AKG K1000.

Jim, I was going to argue that it's quite possible that it could belong to a married gay couple. Then I noticed the plywood speaker and component plinths. Not possible!

Electronic or mechanical? If you had to drop the fuel tank, that's a big job!

Have an incredible day!

BTW Jim, have you considered this? https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=35143 There's a 12" version too. Also... https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisa2ebg-monolith-by-monoprice-thx-certified-sealed-500-watt-powered-subwoofer-m10-s-subwoofers

Jim. I've always read that placement of the subwoofer isn't that critical. I myself have found this to be wrong. I'd say play around with placement, crossover frequency and level. I've had several systems with subs, and have usually found that in the case of front firing subs, lining up the the driver with my monitors has produced a more aligned and natural sound. Room corner placement can help with A/V systems, but IMO is too wooley for music only systems. In general a sealed sub is better for music as well. As Bryan stated, I think the "more is better" idea grabs you at first, because you're hearing all this bass you've been missing, but I think eventually you'll find yourself setting the crossover higher, and the level lower. Every room/system is different, and it's not a quick dial in, but keep playing around and you'll get there.

The only case that I know the brisket fairy has is a Louis Vuitton.

Most of us lose our soft spot between 7 and 19 months.

Is the state of DACSES near Seattle?

No, but I did sleep at a Holiday Inn last night.

Peach cobbler, to take to Milo's house for dinner.

^ Yes please!

I saw transub, and my mind went to a whole other place. Nevermind...carry on.

Those damn Bulgins vandalize everything!

Heil AMT FTMFW!

You're totally ignoring Joni Mitchell, behind you. Just rude.

I had a PCM processor in the 80's. I used my Betamax as a reel to reel with excellent results.

Haven't you heard, size doesn't matter?
