Default Suggest designs, please.

I am considering building the "Dragon Foals," if I can find the parts I need. However I'm not sure I can get a good deal on the part.

What are some other good designs that would work well on a desk?

I'd prefer they do well down to 85hz or so.

Thanks!

I've no idea what a Dragon Foal is, and I can't be bothered to go searching -a link would be preferable.

Depends what you want, and the size of the cabinets you can accomodate.

Here Scott... "Dragon Foals" writeup - Techtalk Speaker Building, Audio, Video, and Electronics Customer Discussion Forum From Parts-Express.com. Much the same as Zaph's box for the same driver.

You could spend a bit more money and end up with something quite a bit better (and no filters to suck the life out). FF88ex in Martello, or a further step up, the new FF85wk (i've not finalized my box yet for that)

So how would I make those (parts), and how do you know those are better? (I don't see a chart)

Thanks.
