After visiting a friend and listening to his various renditions of Voigt-based speakers, I decided that I also want some of the action!
The design objective was simple:
100mm full-range driver (with high-frequency supplementation by a 10mm tweeter)
My friend did the cabinet design for me and I did the construction - we live +/- 300 kms apart!
Here is some photos of the build thus far...

Very nice! I like the photos detailing the construction. Your cabinet making skills are very good. 🙂 How do they sound?

Thank you!
They sound pretty amazing for 4" drivers! Very "musical" which makes them very "listenable" ... 🙂
First: They look really wonderful! Second: which plans did you use (and where might I find them). Third: what is make/model of the speakers you used. Fourth: I want a pair, dangit!!!! Congrats...
They seem to be extremely tall!
And are they attached to that bottom-plate?
They are 2040 mm tall! And yes, they are going to be bolted onto the plinths.

01: Thank you!
02: The cabinets was designed by a friend that manufactures these speakers for a living.
03: Drivers are VISATON FR10 8 OHM (Art No 2021) & VISATON SC 5 8 OHM (Art No: 8005)
04: Build a set... lol!
PS - I can put you in touch with the guy who designed the cabs - maybe he is kind enough to supply you with the blue prints.
great build, the finished speakers look very attractive. I'm sure the build description will be a great help or inspiration to some.
here's an 8" version which sparked my interest in the format many years ago:
The Voigt Pipe
The format is very effective, as proven by the reverence that Terry Cain's Abby is still held in.
