Smile My Introduction

Hello to all,

My name is Dimitriy and I am a fourth year Mechanical Engineering student at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, CA. I've been a member of the AES for the past two years, and have just completed an acoustics class where I built two ported bookshelves and a sealed center channel using Vifa Logic series BG 14WK03-04 5-1/4" midbass drivers and VIFA MG27TG29-04 1" dome tweeters. Can't afford anything extraordinary on a college student budget, so speaker building seems like a great way to go. My current set up consists of a Yamaha HTR-5540 receiver and a pair of Celestion Ditton 33's, as well as the speakers I just put together. I also have an old Kenwood KR 920B receiver laying around somewhere. Anyway, that's about all for now.

Regards,

Dimitriy

Great to have you aboard. I hope you find the site interesting. Let me know what text books did you have to buy for your acoustics class?

San Luis Obispo! GREAT!

I'm in Arroyo Grande. You should swing by and check out my shop sometime. I’ve actually got a patent pending on a new audio transducer technology that I might let you preview – I’ll ask my attorney if I’ll need to snuff you afterward. Send me a private email and I’ll give you my number.

Hey, are there any other Central California Coast audioheads?

BROKEN THIRDS,

We used the following textbook in our acoustics class:

Fundamentals of Acoustics, Fourth Edition, by Lawrence E. Kinsler, Austin R. Frey, Alan B. Coppens, and James V. Sanders.

I can't say this was a very useful book. Couldn't find a single exmaple in it. I found myself using my old vibes book for the first half of the class.
