Thanks Ray

You must have a pretty big bedroom.

What driver are you going to use?

What stage are you at?

Bedroom is a closed in large 2 car garage
Have got all the panels cut for one speaker
Have a pair of FE206's that were given to me going to try them out.
This is my first full range speaker build,I wanted to try these.
I have built 2 cornscala's some WO32's and a custom center for my HT'
I love horn loaded speakers and this seemed like a good build to start with.

Is it first Jericho or the Jericho 08 with an internal helmholz resonator?

What kind of plywood did you use?

There are simulations of the 206 in both the Jericho and the Jericho 08 at Hilfe bei Hornberechnungen bitte!, Lautsprecher - HIFI-FORUM

This is the first design
I am using 3/4 inch red oak plywood,it a little pricey but heavy,stiff and has a awsome grain pattern.I am going to go with a cherry stain.

I have built Accousta 115, a bit smaller but with similar foldning geometry. I strongly suggest that you have braced betwen the back plate and the internal baffle. Internal braces running along the middle of the other internal baffles is also a good idea.

Or go concrete duelund

Thanks for the tip! I took a closer look at the design and cut some brace's for both panels made whole box very strong and tight
