Tangband W3-871S

[wim]

Today i received 2 full range tangbands W3-871S and i am wondering how i can get the best out of them, I mean a DIY enclosure (with or witout aditional high or low drivers in it). I prefer to use the Tangbands alone, without additional drivers..

Anyone made somothing that is very good?

Wim,

I built Salas' TB3, but it requires 2 871's per side. The thread is here http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=57210

The bass is quite surprising for a small box.

You could also build Cyburg's Needles. It only requires one driver. I'm still playing around with this, but the initial results are quite good.

Thanks Ken, no problem to order another 2 drivers if the results are good with your design. I am going to read the thread you offered.

thanks for so far.

Here are a couple of links to a full range monitor using the W3-871S.

Hi,
I´d personally go with the bipole as well but just in case you get tired of those variations here´s another one:
