Fostex FE 126E

[HoJ]

I have build me speakers, using Fostex fullrange fe 126e.. It sounds great with my super t-amp.. This system have it's own room, I tried first to have it on my main soundroom, but it was too big, now in the small room it sounds great.

I love this sound, it`s not hard on the topp, it has a fullness sound, and it's wery cheap (49 euro) each element.

I have a linkthis link..

Looks great!

Is that built to the Fostex Recommended Bass Reflex Enclosure size?

How do you like the bass response and are you using a BSC?

[HoJ]

This is the recommendation from fostex yes!

I dont know what a bsc is (bad english) The bass reponse is good on this one

BSC = Baffle Step Correction

Attached is a quick sim of the fostex BR enclosure. Based on the sim results, I would guess that an aggressive BSC could help.

Oh! I see, in that case i dont use it no.. It's just plug and play

Hello Everybody,

I 'm starting to build Frugal Horn(full version but without wedgies) with FE126E and I would like to know if BSC is applicable to this project or is only applicable on BR system.

Thanks

Richard.

I don't have bcs on my speakers, and I don't think bass is a problem on mine one..

Richard, with the supra-baffle (which I personally consider a critical component of both the FrugalHorn and Ron Clarke's A126), baffle step EQ should be redundant.
