FE127E Reference Designs

bluegti · 6th March 2006, 03:48 PM

I've read through the entire Full Range Reference Project thread, but it seems like it was never concluded. After much deliberation there was some concensus to build a speaker around the Fostex FE127E for purposes of being a reference to which people can compare their sound and designs. The idea that a speaker can be a reference without being the ultimate best at everything keeps getting lost in the thread with suggestions for new drivers, designs, etc reoccuring.

To my point... is there a final set of designs and some documentation about how to build them anywhere? I can't seem to find anything "final". I would like to build the single-driver version of the Folded N-monopole.

The most recent drawings were recently posted consecutively by Dave starting at post 536 and continuing to post 541.

I don't think anyone has put together a webpage yet, but a couple of the designs have been built with good results.

The dimensions on the drawings are good to go. You will likely have to adjust the length of the port and the amount of stuffing, but that will be more to personal taste.

Cheers,
Gio.
