diy speaker

I've been wanting to try out a solid DIY approach to a 2-way, so I'm starting up a build of the Heissmann DXT-Mon-182. I went through $100 of good material to do that darned faceted face but couldn't get consistent results with my tools (which are good, but no match for a CNC machine). So I've...

Hi everyone, I am in total disbelief. Just registered to find some advice or comment of someone with more experience than me. Listening for years now with good and bad gear. Today I finished my project with the Markaudio Pluvia 11, Topping La90 and REW+EQ APO for room correction. The position...

I have been working on this project for a long time, and finally finished it. The concept is simple: a 3-way speaker with full-range directivity control. Design and optimization of waveguides was done with Fusion 360 (modelling) and AKABAK (simulation). I will not bore you with the details, but...

I’ve loved hifi audio and have only recently been intrigued with building my own speakers. I’m currently designing a pair with a TMM orientation, but one thing that I’ve noticed is that almost all tower speakers in the retail market have a port. Is this necessary to design a good tower...

Hi Everyone! TLDR; what's your preferred FR Curve and EQ goals when using DSP? I've built my own pair of speakers of my own design, you can find my write up of it here: Still Haven't Named Them. I stopped messing with them for a bit and am very happy with its sound signature except I found...

Hi All, I'd be happy to photo-log my DIY work on building my CSS Criton 1TDX speakers. I'm not a woodworker neither an electrical engineer (though have some understanding of the former), however I'm really pleased with the result. Another important thing to mention - I've made all my build...

Hello, Amir! Hello, Forum! I found my way to this website through Floyd Toole's book and Amir's excellent YouTube channel. I'm hoping to find a similarly grounded approach to our fascinating hobby here. Who am I? I guess my 'hifi career' has been fairly typical until roughly 12 years ago. The...

Well, I'm getting my act together to build a pair of DXT-MONs. Purchased the plans a year ago! I will have to join a maker space to access a proper table saw, thickness planer. My plan is to build to the spec. *but* substitute Dark Walnut hardwood for the specified 19mm and 38mm MDF...

Greetings. I have an ellam 98 mk II http://www.troelsgravesen.dk/Ellam98-mkII.htm designed by Troels Gravesen of Denmark. I made the terrible mistake of buying a JBL 305 mk II recently, because of the one-man-industry-disruptor we all know about. To my utter horror, the ellam is thoroughly...
