Enio as usual very good job, love it...:)
 
any updates ?

about 90% finish now. just waiting for the cloth for the magnetic grill and the spikes.

initial impression

silky smooth just like the Original but with better bass extension. now i believe that they are indeed the improved version of the original! i think im gonna sell my original so i can buy 3 pairs of these. :D:D:D

Spent a little time at the weekend on my garden bluetooth speaker. Notice the lack of the word 'portable '....it's quite a big thing.

2 x Tectonic Elements BMR and 1 x Dayton Audio tcp115. All 8 ohms. Will be powered by a 2.1 3116 amp. Initially I am going to try a 12v 6ah motorbike battery and see how it fairs.

I have 15 litres of volume just for the drivers. Plans were first 2 small separate sealed for the bmrs and the remainder for the ported tcp115.

Pleased with my first foray into recessing speakers into wood.

A re-post of an amazing baffle-less open baffle system by member TrasnsFi over in Lencoheaven:

Very nice work and superb looking system. The PRV 5MR450NDY seems to be the weapon of choice. If you want to learn more about this under-utilized 95dB fullrange posing as a midrange PA driver, more info here.


I went over to the other site and read that whole thread

Those speakers look Very interesting
 
Couldn't pass up a deal on a pair of barely-used Alpair 10P, so I made Mar-Ken10pwTTs for them. 18mm Baltic birch ply with 9mm solid cherry vent spacers. Six coats of Trader Joe's French Roast coffee and three coats of Minwax satin polyurethane. They're a little bigger than the traps I made for FE103Sol. ;)

Everything should be wrong but its what I had to hand. Im in the honeymoon period all sounds good to me bass a bit boomy and mids a bit muddled if I listen to the speaker not the music. Back in the Diy mood after not being able to for a couple of years. I blow my last fostex, dc through and no viocecole left . Then had to listen to B&W 603 2 for a year then they had a tweeter problem. I found some secondhand unused Alpair 10p the ones I always wanted online. I had these boxes cut some holes in some off cuts from a skip sprayed them black, soldered 5 cat single twisted onto them screwed in place connected to ACA 24v with hotrodded DCB1 and diy dac and Im now at around 50 hours in. when I have time and money I'll make some pencils but these are sounding great after the B&ws very pleased.

So im stuck with these for the moment has anyone got any suggestions to improve and make the best of a bad job?

Ive made a pdf drawing with the details metric and imperial, took as long as the speakers to make
