Jim Salk has posted a Speaker Workshop Manual at the www.audiodiycentral.com site. It is about 6.5 Mb zipped. I embedded several small programs and Excel spreadsheets to supplement the program. I hope that it is helpful, educational, and enjoyable.

Good, I sure hope it has a better description of the calibration process, that alone almost makes SW not worth using. Half the time I cant get a good cal and the old instructions are outdated and simply dont work for most sound cards.

All 255 pages of it! 😉
edit: removed pointless comment here, demonstrating my inability to read

What version of Word are you using? I have not had feedback from others that this is happening. It was written in Word 2000 and the embedded files are excel 2000 files as a general rule. I can't guarantee that all earlier versions will support the manual but my Word 97 seems to be able to do okay with it (on another computer). Give as much info as you can, maybe someone here or I can figure it out along with you.

Hi, I've converted it into PDF format and uploaded it here temporarily for you: http://www.vikash.info/audio/downloads/Speaker%20Workshop%20Manual%201.0%20PDF.zip
File size is 4.46Mb (expands to around 17Mb)
Obviously you won't have any of the excel functionality this way, but it should get around the print probs.

Thanks.
I think I need a new sound card though, because even with input muted it reads a bunch of low frequencies..
Or maybe just proper calibration.

Office 97 on NT at work, I keep getting "Switch Error" messages... I was going to burn it to CD and do it at home, I think I still have a copy of Office X around somewhere. but I will have a go with the PDF and see how that goes, ( cheers Vikash 🙂)
Oh, Vikash, I will be in touch at some point on that other matter, just a bit busy at the moment. 😉

I will play around with it on my laptap (it is running with Windows 95 and Office 97 to see if I can re-create the problem. It is possible that it will not be compatible unless I convert it to Word 97 format. I don't think that this would be a problem for most of what is in there though some of the formatting might mess up a little.
Please try first on the more up to date version of Word that you have. If this doesn't work, I will attempt a Word 97 conversion for you and Email it to you if you would like (please note that it does take up about 6.6 MB of space in it's condensed version). Just let me know and good luck,

Anybody have Salk's Speaker Manual?
Anybody know where I can get a copy of the Jim Salk Speaker Workshop Manual that used to be posted at the www.audiodiycentral.com site. I did some googling, but was unable to locate it.
Thanks,

Hi All,
Nice work and even nicer to share it.
The Excel files opens nicely and seem to run OK on open office.
I used to encounter problems with older versions of open office but nowadays
it seems to always work
And I'm not a big fan of MS, so I like it a lot.
