Finished desktop tl (henkjan/juoiga) alpair 5

_henry_ · 2nd April 2010, 02:53 AM

I just finished HENKJAN's design DESKTOP TL for the alpair 5, im using the ALPAIR 5 GREY.

I was able to finish it in 1 day, using glue and screw (its my first build and i want to take advantage of the holiday)

Its such wonderful sound. I feel no sub needed.

Thanks to HENKJAN & MARK

well, its kind a embarrassing, no finish, just plain plywood and the alpair 5 not yet recessed mounted

but it still great sounding little beast

Hello Henkjan,

I was hoping that you would respond. I have a pair of Alpair 5, and would like to build your enclosure. However, my shelf is too short. Is there a way to make the enclosure shorter while keeping the bass output? Or am looking at a completely different design. Thanks.

how much shorter?

The shelf is about 30 cm tall or a little under a foot. I realize that a tl might not be possible. Have you built any other enclosures for the A5? Thanks.

so the max cab height would be just below 1 foot? how deep could it be? with a different 'fold' of the line, while keeping approx the same length and cross sections it will sound the same.

Depth is about 1 foot, so it would overhang the shelf quite a bit if the cross section and length remain the same. I was hoping that the length could be shortened and more stuffing added, but that might be a completely different design.
