    Mechano23 Open-source DIY Speaker Review

    I didn't know Genelec was offering DIYs. As always, great review, Amir, and a great find as well.

    Mechano23 Open-source DIY Speaker Review

    This is a review, listening tests and detailed measurements of the "Mechano23" open-source DIY speaker. A pair was kindly sent to me by the member. You can read more about it here. Baltic birch cabinet seems quite solid and well above what you get commercially. I was surprised to see a...

    I don't understand the question. :D

    Pump up the Volume (in various projects)

    I started the conversation in the DIY thread for a reason, which is to eliminate the weakest link (after the room and the speakers). To check if I need to (or can) build a passive preamp. My question is also: If they are not digital or perfect by design, why are the class D kits so popular in...

    Fosi Audio V3 Mono Amplifier Review

    This really has nothing to do with this review thread... that is a DIY option, this is a built amp. The 2 are not exactly comparable, apples and oranges. JSmith

    All-including kit for DIY bookshelf speakers?

    The Hivi 3.1A seems like a great candidate: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/hivi-3-1a-diy-speaker-with-sehlin-mod-review.15802/ https://www.soundimports.eu/en/hivi-diy31-kit-white.html Please note though that what Amir tested was a modified version of the 3.1A, the...

    Hypex Nilai500DIY Amplifier Review

    I bought a pair of these after seeing this review as I couldn’t decide between this and Purifi. I can confirm they sound phenomenal. Exceptionally good. Very happy. When I bought them a few weeks ago from KJF Audio here in the UK they were £850 each (including VAT). I can strongly recommend...

    "Micro Bamboo Project" : 3E Audio 260-2-29A Stereo amplifier + Micro-Audio PSU

    Yes, I will wait until the Sylph reviews and out of curiosity waiting for Fosi and Ayima to. As I said before I already hava a ZA3 so i´m not in a hurry. To be honest I would prefer to build one but doing a DIY project should have some winnings in either price or performance. Preferably both. I...

    Parts Express Orian Speaker Review

    Btw, was able to confirm that the CX-150 coaxial used in Orian sold poorly as a standalone driver. Also, that PE only plans to sell it as part of the Orian kit. This is unusual for them. I would not buy a DiY speaker that did not have the drivers available for spares. Lends credence to the rumor...

    Looking for help to find an amp for four speakers to connect a streamer to.

    thank you. I am sure this will be a fun discovery journey. The only thing I dislike abut the Topping is the separate power supply. Is Hypex pretty much the standard for DIY?

    Looking for help to find an amp for four speakers to connect a streamer to.

    Use the following link and check out Amir's amplifier reviews: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?pages/Reviews/. Two Topping PA7 probably would serve you well. Note that some people have complained about quality issues with Topping, but I have had no issues with my MX5...

    Pump up the Volume (in various projects)

    True. :confused: But they switch (0 and 1) some kind of pulse (samples) at a frequency that complies with the Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem :cool:. I am not too sure that that theorem is relevant here... So they behave "digital", correct? Do their success in DIY kits and good reviews by...

    Akitika GT-108 Stereo Amplifier Kit Review

    Great review, and discussion. I don't do any DIY or electronics so initially I simply looked at the measurements and voted low (not terrible). The discussion has evolved: some nostalgia, some recognition that this is a good learning tool and some lovely interaction with the actual designer. In...

    Which DIY speakers would you like to see reviewed?

    I would love to see the PartsExpress Solstice kit by Jeff Bagby be reviewed with the Klippel NFS. It's one of the very few tower DIY kits that comes with a full flatpack with a ton of builds. And I'm curious how the TMM 2-way holds up.
