hi,
I have some fe167's. I have very novice wood working skills, zero speaker building skills (but do build my own valve amps).
Could anyone point me in the direction of a simple to build mltl (I have searched around, and its probably the highest WAF of the designs).
I can get access to tools so that is not a problem.
Cheers
Adam.

Adam,
Should you be interested, I have a pair of Scottmoose MLTL cabinets designed for the FE167e you can have for little more than the cost of the materials?
They are made from 18mm Birch Ply and are stained light oak and varnished. They have threaded inserts in base for 8mm spikes.
However. They are built for use with the Fostex FT17H supertweeter and an L-Pad. The supertweeter in my opinion with this driver, especially if fitted with a phase plug is a big bonus.
Here is a thread to the actual speakers when I retro-fitted the FT17H. audio-talk :: View topic - MLTL MkII's
And here is a thread to another build of this design that will give you an idea of the size etc. audio-talk :: View topic - The latest generation of MLTL speakers
Send me a pm or email if you are interested. I have a pair at home, built for my son, you can listen to if you live anywhere near north Manchester.
Unfortunately I cannot find my copy of the original plans.

Check out:
The Spawn Family of Double Horns
The Chili Chang and Half Chili are for the FE167e
You might also want to think about a Metronome:
The Metronome
the FE167e is listed in the Metronome Tables
The Metronome is a slightly more difficult build, due to the non-square nature of the cuts. I have built Mets for the FE108eSigma and F120a. The cabinet style works well, uses a small foot print, and has high WAF.
I have also built the Half Chang using FE206e and was very pleased with that design also.
Cheers, Jim

thanks chaps. I am looking for an mltl, aesthetically i can get away with them, and they dont need corners to work well (and i cant provide them with corners).
toppsy - I live in oxford so we are a bit too far away for a listen.
I have heard lots of reference to the scottmoose plan, but never seen it - is it commercial?

GM, I bought bobs plans in the end.

Thumbs up from me!
