nukaidee prepare for an assualt:
How'd you secure the baffle to the cylinder?
What's the baffle made of?
What's the cylinder made of?
What's the internal volume?

lol? assault? the baffle to the glass cylinder is secured purely by friction. its a mixture of foam and sillicone =) It doesn't move as I don't really play it loud. actually there is not really a baffle, the glass cylinder and the diameter of the driver frame is almost identical, the aluminum is just a cover =). internal volume is 1.8L, the vas of the driver is a 1.66 but since I have hanging led's and the driver takes up room its close enough for me. Frequency response (not measured, just guessing) is 100-20k. No filters at all, straight from my amp, my amp acts as a hpf at 100hz.
thanks for looking

Fostex 126e Bass Reflex with BSC
Hi guys - - just finished up a set of bass reflex cabs for the FE126e, 10L as in Fostex doc, but with different dimensions - wider, less deep. I built them as wireless speakers by attaching the guts of small self-amped wireless speakers to the back of the cabinet. The 6 AA battery powered amp are more than enough to drive them to loud listening levels.
The wireless amps can also be disconnected, and the speakers hooked up to a regular amplifier.
They're constructed from 5/8" ply, covered in decorative paper. Cones have 3 light coats of Mod Podge, and the baffle step and Zobel filters from this page have been applied:

The baffle step circuit made a HUGE difference over my previous attempts at a BIB with this driver. Here are a couple of youtube videos:

New Full Range Speakers
These are a pair of one of a kind handmade wood speakers. It houses a 2" aluminum alloy full range driver delivering a frequency response of 150-20,000 Hz. The cabinets are made from solid southern yellow pine, for a warmer sound. each speaker was hand turned on a wood lathe and mounted to the solid southern yellow pine stands. Each speaker is 8 inches tall, 5 inches wide at base and 6 inches deep. These are great for small rooms or for ipod or computer speakers. Must use an amp, these have bare wire terminals on the back of them. These have a nice sound and great imaging. To get full bass they must be matched with a sub. [link] Website coming soon.

Yes, nice. A bit more round over on the front would help with bafflestep ripple... Cal i'd guess HiVi drivers. B3?

there isn't too much baffle ripple, but thanks.
they are B2S, these were my first try at DIY speakers

You can't get around Hoffman's Iron Law... small driver, small box, some bass = low efficiency
