I too may have to hold my next project. I found a fantastic Chinese table and chairs in a flea market that I bought and now need to refurb. Re-glue legs, touch up paint, new seat pillows etc. Maybe its an excuse for the little Porter Cable buffer I want to buff out speaker cabinets with! Always have to figure out what new tool I need for every project.😀
At least I finished making my subs high WAF. ( see stealth sub)

Here are some more detailed drawings of the Satori Monitor cabinets.
Still i am planning to make a simpler alternative version that is easy to make.

btw, Im thinking about a 2.5way SB design, using 8"/6"/CD-horn
just a short OT note, sorry 😀
That's not hi-fi !
exponential port?
what does it do? interesting!
i like the shape though, reminds me of a fine metalworks

Thanks, yes, it looks good. I think the port will reduce noise and hopefully also the higher frequency transmission line resonance. I also may use damping material in the flow port to tune in the resonance frequency.
A shallow subwoofer, a metal dome tweeter, a nice midrange and i also have the 8 Ohm
version of the Satori mid-bass.

i guess you really have been busy these days.
i thought the shallow sub was intended for car use, but i guess it makes sense for compact full range speakers.

Also a sub can be made that can be placed against a wall, nearly invisible. I like the parameters too because a closed box works well.
Here are some photos of the additional drivers i got.

Interesting drivers. I'm looking forward to some independant driver measurements. 🙂

I'm always in the mood for some high quality speaker porn 🙂 Those subs certainly look interesting and are most certainly a decent feat of engineering to fit in everything with the very narrow profile.

SB Acoustics' drivers will look amazing in a transparent acrylic structure.
I'm picturing a clone of Gainphile's S20-Z. These shallow bass drivers in the bottom bin, Satori mid on the baffle...

Hi Joachim, I'll be interested to see your impedance measurements of the mid (one driver delta mass shown) . T/S came out pretty close to published specs. I'm not sure what causes the glitch at around 65Hz though, could be something in my setup.
I've also attached a couple more pics for 5ths enjoyment 😉

No, SB has a trademark on " Egyptian Papyrus". Seas uses what they call a "Reed Cone".
They look different and they perform different but both materials are stiffer then simple pulp paper.

Those pictures just help to show the overall excellent build quality of the SB units, especially considering their attractive pricing.
