Your setup looks really good, is Odin your centre speaker ?

Yes, I used the Odin (parts only) kit from Madisound with the upgraded x-over. The box is SOLID red oak like the others in my set.

They are pretty & they do mirror the cosmetics of the Thors, but i always feel it is a sonic compromise not to take advantage of push-push in a woofer.

Well as the originator of this thread, you will all be pleased to know that I have finally had some time to do what I wanted to do 2 years ago.

More details comming

Yup was a rough fit at the end of the day. That is being turned into cheeze in the next few hours

Great, Byrd!

About time, huh?

That looks like 25 mm, or is it even more?
Are you going to paint them or veneer them?

Byrd · 13th December 2007, 06:49 PM

Here in South Africa, we have 16mm and 22mm as standards. The board you see is 22mm.

Cetainly about time! Can you imagine how I have been feeling every time i saw those poor drivers sitting their in their packing boxes.

Thought I would have a go at veneering them - Light cherry / natural cherry. Thought alot about that one and think the colour of the cherry will go well with the copper of the seas drivers.

Anyhow - A long day working on these monsters, so I am off to bed. Should be finished the construction tommorow, then time for a listen before finishing with veneer.

It has been encouraging to see all the others building their versions.

I am sure I don't have to say it, but thanks to all those that participated in this thread, even the protaganists

( I include myself amoungst that lot). Scott & Dave are real givers when it comes to this hobby. They spend alot of time researching and assisting others for projects they are not even interested in building themselves. Thanks guys
