Alpair 12 Woden Solstice

[skeeter99]

I'm curious if anyone has built these yet?

I think its a really cool looking design but couldn't find any more info on them. Did I miss it somewhere? The size doesn't bother me, I just wonder how these would do vs a SuperPencil12 or similar design?

No-one has built this yet.

Performance should be very similar to the superPensil.

Would you like to be a beta test?

...can i ask how the Aln Dual Column Air Coupler "nessi" would compare?

 

[planet10]

No-one has built that one either (that i know of).

Ok. And the SuperPensil12 is one of the better designs out for that driver isn't it? I'm thinking of replacing my Strata Mini's ... I don't expect 27hz response like my Minis give of course

What would beta testing involve?

We would love to do a beta test with the Solstice. A couple dozen AudioKarma members will be converging at a cabinet shop (in Central Massachusetts) in February and will either be building a Super Pensil or this design (if you need another beta, that is).

Give me a shout at my woden email.

Scottmoose,
I have sent a couple of emails regarding doing some Beta tests with your designs....to date no response from you....is that email at your website still correct? Please contact me regarding beta testing For the Avebury and Solstice.
Thanks,
Jeff

This is not fair Scott - I'm still hooked on the Super Pensil 12s (that too without stuffing) and you are moving on to other designs?

You build this fast - and since you'll have the Super Pensil 12 for comparison, it'll be great to hear your from you the listening experiences.

p.s. how are you making it SMBO filter with all those big cabs? For me, small/medium has become beautiful after BIB and Super Pensil 12

Zia,

I posted this before I did the SuperPensil's so I haven't built these yet. I still kind of want to though. We'll see if I'll be able to though because we're moving and I don't know how well everything will fit.

As far as big speakers go, I can put as big as I want in my house. My wife lets me have fun with my hobby
