Finished a pair os Sachiko's

apleschu · 18th February 2011, 02:02 PM

Just finished a pair of Sachiko's. Drivers are enabl'ed FE207 and so far I do like the sound. My family constantly tells me to turn it down. (I didn't think I was listening too load, or could that be the beginning of deafness?)

Anywho, after playing with them for only one hour I decided now as a next project I will build building a pair of BVR's . Thinking of an array of 4 FE103 per speaker.

Apologies for the shoddy cell phone pics, just took them this morning before running out of the house.

Lovely but they sure are HUGE!

Nice going. Hope you continue to like them. You always know a good speaker when those around you want you to turn them down.

BVR's - didn't you just build a set? Which ones are you thinking next?

Yes, I just built a set, but I have more than one room in my house.

After all I also need good music in my bedroom, and in the den, so there are at least two more projects to come.

Sachiko's are lovely alright - one of the best things I've built.

I thought they were more for the FE206 rather than 207 though.......

So did I, and the 207's would be better suited in a BVR. BUT alas, I can't find any old stock 206 any more. If you have a source, care to share?

They look quite nice, even considering the shoddy cell phone camera. I'm hoping to build a pair myself someday, but I'm starting out small and working my way up. So far I haven't managed to build a cabinet bigger than 11 kg / 70 cm tall. Someday, though...
