North Creek Rhythm manuals sought

[rivahmon]

Please forgive me if I've missed anything posted here but several hours of searching everywhere have left me empty. I am looking for the North Creek manuals and any other documentation that George furnished with his Rhythm kits:
"Cabinet Handbook"
"Wiring Guide"
"Crossover Cabinet"
I am just now getting back into my hobby after a 30 year hiatus due to life happening and have a wonderful opportunity to acquire a pair of these from the second owner. Unfortunately the builder is deceased and I'm not sure if George is still available so I'm seeking any insight.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Send me a pm and I’ll send you George Short’s email. Last I heard, he works/worked for Wisdom Audio.

Best,

Some info on the attitube com, under loudspeakers. Xo point is lowish 1.5 kHz.

 

[rivahmon]

Thanks, but I didn't get anything from the link you sent.
Here's what I have found so far:
attitube: Rhythm Classic Loudspeaker Kit
I greatly appreciate any insight from the members here and hope to get back into my beloved hobby.

From what remember George favours vertical bracing over horizontal, the Rhythm has 3-4 braces running top to bottom. His baffle was 1.5in. Didn't read the wiring manual.
Hope it helps.

Thanks so much to you and all that have responded to my query. The owners manual is a great start but George furnished more with his kits and that's what I'm after.

 

[rivahmon]

Yes, any help is greatly appreciated. I'm trying to track down George for more on this brilliant design and I certainly do appreciate your prompt response.

OK, never having read any of the mini-manuals figuring the kit manuals were all inclusive, don't know what all info is in them, so don't know if their historical site helps, but it's all I'm aware of still on the net [CONTACT tab disabled]: North Creek Home

Thanks GM, never knew how to access the /history archives online until now. You and the other members here have turned out a wealth of information and I'm truly grateful.

 

[GM]

You're welcome! But does it include all of the missing info you're wanting?

Let me know if you weren't able to find what you were looking for on the website. I built a pair originally and I believe I have that documentation printed but will have to hunt.

 

[rivahmon]

I'm grateful to all that have contributed but still looking for the kit manuals and hope you have them somewhere...

 

[Wright]

I will take a look tonight!

 

[rivahmon]

Wright, I took a long drive and picked up the pair after a long audition. I am very pleased with their sound and enough that I may want to build a pair for my son so that manual would be invaluable. I'm not going to give him these becaase I like them too much so far...

Do the manuals include the actual crossover schematic and capacitor/coil values?

 

[Wright]

Hi Rivahmon,

I did some digging and was able to find some of what you were looking for, but not the manual itself. With apologies for the lackluster scan quality, the cabinet handbook and wiring guides are attached. I'll have one more look around this weekend to see if I may still have the Rhythm manual, but I suspect it may sadly be gone.

 

[rivahmon]

Wright,
Thanks for what you found so far and I do appreciate your digging. I know I have docs that old but it's certainly hard to find them when I need them!
