Maplins close-out on AP100Z0 - Page 52

Well, here we go. The fronts are my usual solid sycamore, tweeters are nice old Kef branded audax soft domes. Not heard them working fully yet, as the active xover and amps are still under construction, but running the APs full range they ain't half bad.

Nice, let us know how they sound once youve got the AC and amps built. BTW im trying to find places to buy solid wood, at the moment mahogany about 15mm thick 25cm wide and about 60cm long, where do you get the sycamore from? Its for the same thing, fronts of the loudspeaker.

I use South London Hardwoods. They do mail order, but I like popping in and going through their stock to find the best figured material.

:edit: If you want mahogany, try your local charity s/h furniture shop. Often old cabinets and tables have at least some solid wood in them, and as they are old they are about as stable as wood can be.

Is it possible to obtain AP100Z0 elements at all in the UK anymore?

I don't know, but I have some unused and sealed in box that I might consider selling.
