Building process - The loudspeaker 1

I'm surprised you didn't go with a levitating turntable.
Ha , you know me too well, I really wanted to use magnets but magnets are nothing less then a spring. And we definitely don't need a bouncy table 🙃 we need to absorber the energy and dissipate it into a black hole.
Therefore memory foam! It bounce very slowly 🐌 and thus is a better decoupling mechanism then a spring or magnets.

By the way I heard the maglev in Munich. Funny little thing

Ok, it's been a year since The TL2 are playing in my room. I had my fun and the neighbors too. They made me change the whole system and listening to them after two weeks break I utterly forgot how good and special they are.
So I am convinced of Troels work and it's time for some matching looks.
Adieu fair world, I'm gonna be stuck in the cellar for the next 2 years trying to follow Kevin Scott legendary VOX.
Wish me luck 😁

I was thinking back of these with fond memories... Good to see you go for that!

By the way, shouldn't the title of this thread reflect that your build is actually the Loudspeaker 2, right? Or did I get that wrong.

I do like the fine lines, they could look very classy! They sort of help push the wavefront out, at least as a suggestive measure in a visual way 🙂.

Nice brass holder for a super tweet on top? 😉

Not a modern look but it should work well in any decade...
The walnut will turn out darker with time, I'm thinking of giving it french polish instead of paint, it's the traditional way in antique furniture...
BTW, we are still getting some 200 year old furniture to repair though it has really lost its value. We have in the shop some crazy crazy pieces of art nobody wants. The veneer work those guys have done without modern tools was insane!!
But fashion comes and goes, what seems antique to us now, may seem modern again in a few years.
