This is my first attempt building a pair of BL horn speakers using Fostex FE206 E driver.

Those came out really great! I love seeing the Maxell reel to reel. How do you like the sound of your new speakers?

thanks !
Actually after several months living with my Sonus Faber concertino speakers that was a grate change !

With one word fabulous! Excellent mid-frequencies sweet and clear voices and solo's. And... i have no words to say about low freq. It looks like listening for the first time Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd !

In my case there is no need for sub woofer at all. I have no data (measurements and curves ) to know exactly the frequency response.

Obviously they need space. At least 6 meters long living room is the optimal space.
