Before I buy the Alpair 5.3, will it fit into the Woden Bloodhound box? Looking at the specs some are similar and some not and I'm definitely not qualified to know one way or the other...
Thanks...
I am curious about this as well.
I may attempt a Falcon as the woodworking looks pretty straightforward for a beginner.
I read through this thread and couldn't find a definitive suggestion for the damping material.
I found some UltraTouch "Denim" but min. thickness was 2".
Do you simply cut it to 1/2" thickness, or is there a different material that can be bought without modification?

Would this work for damping material?
Also, any idea about whether the Bloodhound is a good fit for the Alpair 5.3?

So far none of Scott’s or my boxes, including Bloodhound, care whether yu use A5.2 or A5.3 — as best i can figure the largest thing about the difference is that the latter appeals more to Japan (which still consumes the most Mark Audio).
The CHN50 — except for driver mounting detail changes, also fits the same uMar-Kens as the above.

Macatac,
Good find.
wcwc,
In the following link you'll find a pic of a chamfer I did for an Alpair 10.x driver:

As mikejennens has mentioned, there's wood left in the areas for the screw holes. This was done with a router. Same can be done with a rasp. Lot of saw dust/particles, so please wear a mask. Hope it helps.

So here is my current progress on the Bloodhound Baby Lab. This is the 1/2" felt damping. Does this look the way it is supposed to? Would like to know before I close it up. Things become much harder to change then. Haven't yet adhered the felt to the wall. Thanks.

What is the best way to adhere the felt to the speaker walls?
I use silicone sealer. A few dabs will hold it forever.
