Hello! I Have been a member here for a few years but haven't really done anything. OK I have done nothing. I have toyed with home audio speaker building once or twice , but I feel they could have been better though not bad for quesswork and a prefab X/O.

Welcome to diyAudio Mike. Any particular projects in mind? There are plenty of good designs in the Loudspeaker forum.

Hi and welcome to the forums Mike.

Thanks for the welcome. For projects I think I will wait just a little while longer.. Tis the season to put my hobby on hold. Then I need to do a little reading in order to understand why you use certain components in a x/o, and a little more reading for baffles inside the enclosures. Most of that is part of the package in car audio. Baffles are unneccesary for in car subwoofer applications. I think I will try to find a project that is more general purpose Music ( louder design ) that I can use for HT. The Harman Kardon Festival 80 is getting old and is starting to have issues.

Just a little amendment.. Searching and reading it occurred to me that ob is what I knew as infinite baffle. This is going to be tough getting usedto some of the new terminology.
