heh, nice looking speaker boxes 🙂
and yes, those woofers are actually subwoofers.. and put the port on the back!

yes.... how come when I posted pictures of my speakers using the same woofers, no one pointed this out? 😛
Guss said:Is there a crossover going with these ?
as above... I post pics of mine, and no one specifically asked about crossovers.. 😛

Why on the back ? lol , the thing is that both have been digged on the right side😉 Are these box tuned or are just plaine speakers ?

We were just so happy to see that you finished them.😉SkinnyBoy said:

We figured you had it covered. Remember, by the old DIYAudio system, you would be considered "Enlightened".SkinnyBoy said:as above... I post pics of mine, and no one specifically asked about crossovers.. 😛

Sorry, wrong word or something like that 😎 The question was, is that box tuned or you friend bought this speaker with that port because it was so cute together and...is it calibrated at all ? I hate to be misunderstood, but most of the time...

no spares.. cos he got his Venoms when I got mine.... we got 8 so we got them cheaper.. 😀 😛
sobazz said:So how do they sound? I mean - where do you cross the subwoofer and the tweeter😉
who knows.... who cares.... I've done the same thing.... can't remember the frequency..... but he and I often boost the bass and treble.. 🙂
I have a pair of those in my system at the moment, and if you drive them with a really clean signal they give excellent results. A silk- smooth and non-abrasive sound, but can really slice the air with ease if the program material calls for it.SkinnyBoy said:using... ReSponse tweeters.. 🙂
tell me what you think
Stereo imaging is moderately good in that the centre image is quite sharply defined and the sound often appears not to be coming from the speakers themselves but from that space in the dead centre. Mine are about 4 metres apart and you can localise the sound to about +/- 20mm. 3D depth is pretty much non-existant though. Not sure if it is the speakers or the recordings.
There are better tweeters around, but you pay more of course. FWIW, I like these ones. Just drive them with a clean signal. If they sound gritty and ragged, it ain't this tweeter's fault.

Hey Rod, I saw some stuff in some old posts about neophites etc (can't remember my D&D) ratings for people (was in an old thread where Mr daniels was being quizzed about changing from being Harry Potter), but I've never seen it since I've been on diyAudio, is this an old thing that was done away with?
Hey skinny I think what postman was getting at was that if the ports are mounted "off center", then they should be a mirror image 🙂 (ie not both on the left hand side, one on the left and one on the right) I suspect this is purely for asthetics though!
Tony.
