Fence Post 2 inch FR mini array build

avincenty · 15th October 2011, 07:16 PM

Lowes had some fence posts on sale and I could not resist. Bought some Misco full ranges from Allelectronics and went for it. The speakers are for one of my kids bedrooms. The fence post is tuned to 100 hz, there is some bass. It definitely can use a Sub but my kid does not know the difference. They sound pretty good. Almost like having large headphones.

Thanks. I am lucky that I have a bunch of tools in my garage along with scraps of material to test.

Those look great. Hopefully your son(?) is old enough to appreciate what Daddy did for him.

Good Daddy!

I hear you on having the right tools. The greatest tool I have bought is my router and jasper jig. Do the speakers have a narrow sweet spot from left to right?

Man, you must be one great Daddy.

Does not feel narrow from around 6 feet. Between the speakers sounds good everywhere (small bedroo) ,outside there is no real sense of imaging.
