Audio Nirvana 12 Metronome

yan6 · 29th October 2009, 04:25 PM

Has anyone built a set of these, I'm looking for some reviews or direction. I have been mostly thinking of metronome or Cain & Cain Abby clones.

Cheers

I doubt it -they're very big. Forgot I did one actually.

I dont suppose you remember your impresions of it?

I haven't built them, so unfortunately not. I just designed one, along with a couple of other Mets at the same time, if my poor, battered brain remembers correctly.

5' tall plus feet, 10" wide x 6" deep at the top, 24" wide x 20" deep at the bottom...but you'd need to make it at least a bit bigger to accomodate some bracing...

Any other suggestions for the Audio Nirvana 12. I want to do another full range project this winter, something different from Fostex and something with a good full bass.

How big a box can you handle? The AN12s need a substantial sized cabinet if you want to use them anything approaching optimally.

Size isnt too much of a problem, big wide OB is out of the question, I could handle up to the size of the metronome. Tall is good, especially if I can get the driver up a little as well, the room it will be in has a table and chairs that can tend to get in the way sometimes. I have of course seen the cabinets offered by common sense audio. I'm sure they are good, however a little plain looking for my taste!

Which of the drivers do have, standard or CF?
