In their Audiophile kits section, look for Accurate A. It uses Accuton drivers.

I've also built two speakers using Accuton drivers. They sounded fine. This one is still for sale😉

Peter,
how do they compare to PHL

 

[Peter Daniel]

I yet have to listen to PHL, but those ceramic drivers (aluminum oxide cones) sound very good and detailed. I've read some reviews yesterday, on speakers using those drivers, and they raved about them.

Mine setup with Accutons is based on Wilson Grand Slamm and I plan to add bass unit with two Cabasse 8" woofers on bottom.

If you can read Dutch and are handy with hammer and saw than you can imitate this Belgium guy:
